Usage

General Description

Dibutyl glutarate is a chemical compound that is composed of butyl and glutarate groups. It is commonly used as a plasticizer in the production of various commercial products, such as adhesives, lacquers, and varnishes. As a plasticizer, dibutyl glutarate helps to improve the flexibility and durability of the final product by increasing its elasticity and reducing its brittleness. Additionally, it is also used as a solvent in a variety of industrial applications, such as in the manufacturing of coatings, inks, and cleaning products. However, dibutyl glutarate has been known to cause irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory system, and may be harmful if swallowed or inhaled in large quantities. Therefore, proper handling and safety precautions should be taken when working with this chemical.

Method for preparing diacid diester compound under catalysis of deep eutectic solvent

The invention belongs to the technical field of organic synthesis, and discloses a method for preparing a diacid diester compound through catalysis of a deep eutectic solvent, wherein the deep eutectic solvent takes ammonium salt and ferric salt as hydrogen acceptors, takes p-toluenesulfonic acid as a hydrogen donor, takes diacid or anhydride of the diacid and an alcohol compound as raw materials, and adopts a one-pot method to prepare the diacid diester compound; and under the catalysis of the deep eutectic solvent, the esterification reaction is performed to generate the diester product. The selected deep eutectic solvent has characteristics of environmental protection, easy preparation, cheap components and easy recovery; the preparation method has characteristics of simple operation, simple separation, no water-carrying agent, repeated use of the deep eutectic solvent, and high diester yield.

PROCESS FOR DOUBLE CARBONYLATION OF ALLYL ALCOHOLS TO CORRESPONDING DIESTERS

The invention relates to a process for doubly carbonylating allyl alcohols to the corresponding diesters, wherein a linear or branched allyl alcohol is reacted with a linear or branched alkanol (alcohol) with supply of CO and in the presence of a catalytic system composed of a palladium complex and at least one organic phosphorus ligand and in the presence of a hydrogen halide selected from HCl, HBr and HI.

The synthesis of di-carboxylate esters using continuous flow vortex fluidics

A vortex fluidic device (VFD) is effective in mediating the synthesis of di-esters at room temperature. Processing under ambient conditions allows for a simple and efficient synthesis, whilst operating under continuous flow addresses scalability. The rotational speed of the sample tube and the flow rate were critical variables during reaction optimization, and this relates to the behaviour of the fluid flow at a molecular level. Whilst at specific rotational speeds the tube imparts a vibrational response into the fluid flow, the flow rate dictates residence time and the ability to maintain high levels of shear stress. The combination of mechanically induced vibrations, rapid micromixing, high levels of shear stress and water evaporation results in yields up to 90% for 3.25 minutes or less residence time. These results are key for devising greener and more efficient processes both mediated by the VFD and other continuous flow platforms.
