Preparation of alkyl carboxylates
-
, (2008/06/13)
A process for preparation of alkyl carboxylate mixtures enriched in alpha-methylalkyl carboxylate compounds, by reaction of an olefin and a carboxylic acid compound in the presence of a particular type of zeolite catalyst. The zeolites are characterized by a silica to alumina mole ratio of at least 12 and a constraint index of 1 to 12. Zeolites ZSM-5 and ZSM-12 are particularly preferred.
Method for the selective preparation of secondary alcohols and derivatives thereof

A method for preparation of secondary alcohol mixtures by selective reaction of an olefin or olefin mixture and a carboxylic acid compound in the presence of a particular type of shape selective zeolite catalyst. The reaction selectively produces α-methylalkyl carboxylate enriched ester product which, upon subsequent hydrolysis, yields the desired 2-alcohol enriched secondary alcohol product.

The synthesis and decomposition of N-(n-butyl)-N',N'-dimethyl-N-nitrosourea (2a), N-(n-butyl)-N',N'-dimethyl-N-nitrourea (3a), N',N'-dimethyl N-(1-norbornyl)-N-nitrosourea (2b), N',N'-dimethyl-N-(1-norbornyl)-N-nitrourea (3b) are described.Several of the compounds show complex NMR spectra ascribable to rotational isomerism.Decomposition of 2a and 3a gave n-butyl N,N-dimethylcarbamate and tetramethylurea, while decompostion of 2b and 3b in methylene chloride gave 1-norbornyl N,N-dimethylcarbamate and 1-norbornyl chloride.These products are formed via diazotic acid derivatives and carbonium ion pairs; the reaction mechanism is essentially the same as that established for the closely related N-nitrosoamides.In concentrated solutions, nitrosourea 2a yielded a new product, amino acid 20.
Preparation of alkyl carboxylates

, (2008/06/13)
A method for preparation of alkyl carboxylate compounds, and especially α-methylalkyl carboxylate compounds, by reaction of an olefin and a carboxylic acid compound in the presence of a particular type of zeolite catalyst. The zeolites are characterized by a silica to alumina mole ratio of at least 12 and a constraint index of 1 to 12. Zeolites ZSM-5 and ZSM-12 are particularly preferred.
