Abstract:
A process for preparing 4-cyclohexyl-2-methyl-2-butanol, comprising: a) reaction of styrene with isopropanol at elevated temperature to obtain 2-methyl-4-phenyl-2-butanol, and b) heterogeneously catalyzed hydrogenation of 2-methyl-4-phenyl-2-butanol over a catalyst suitable for ring hydrogenation of aromatics, where the molar ratio of the styrene used in step a) to the isopropanol used in step a) is in the range from 1:below 5 to 1:0.5.
Abstract:
Preparation of C4-oxygenates, in particular 2-butanol and butanone, which comprises the reaction of ethene with ethanol to form 2-butanol under conditions under which ethanol is present in the supercritical state.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for preparing arylpropenes, especially 1-methoxy-4-(1-propenyl)benzene (anethole), by means of thermolysis of the corresponding 1,1-diarylpropanes.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to processes for the preparation of compounds of the formula (Ia) by reacting styrene with a secondary alkanol and the hydrogenation of the resulting phenyl-substituted tertiary alkanol. In addition, the invention relates to compounds of the formula (Ia) and to the use of such compounds as fragrances, and also to compositions which comprise compounds of the formulae (Ia) and (Ib).

Abstract:
A process for preparing salts of acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid (A) using the steps of: preparing a solution of a contaminated salt of acrylamido-2-methyl-propanesulfonic acid (A) in an anhydrous organic solvent (L) using at least one basic component (B) selected from the group of alkali metal oxides, alkaline earth metal oxides, alkali metal hydroxides, alkaline earth metal hydroxides and amines of the formula (I) NRaRbRc (I) where the Ra, Rb and Rc radicals are each independently: hydrogen, C1-C4-alkyl, hydroxy-C1-C4-alkyl or C1-C4-alkoxy, where the molar ratio of compound (A) to the basic component (B) is 1:1 to 1:3, recovering the dissolved salt of compound (A) by crystallization or by precipitation, by altering the temperature and/or the pressure and/or the concentration of the salt in the solution. This leads to salts which are low in by-products and are particularly suitable for polymerization.
