The invention also relates to a process for preparing the alkyltrialkoxysilanes, and to the alkyltrialkoxysilanes as such.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to methods for preparing a composition comprising an isoprenol- alkoxylate having an isoprene-content of not more than 1000 ppm. The present invention also relates to compositions prepared or obtainable by such methods. The present invention further relates to the use of peroxides for decreasing the isoprene-content in a composition.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for improving the catalytic properties of a catalyst that exists in the form of a structured monolith and comprises one or more elements selected from the group comprising cobalt, nickel and copper, wherein the catalyst is brought into contact with one or more base compounds selected from the group of alkali, earth alkali and rare earth metals. The invention further relates to a method for hydrogenating compounds comprising at least one unsaturated carbon-carbon, carbon-nitrogen or carbon-oxygen compound, in the presence of a catalyst comprising one or more elements selected from the group comprising cobalt, nickel and copper, wherein the catalyst exists in the form of a structured monolith, characterized in that the catalyst is brought into contact with one or more base compounds selected from the group of alkali, earth alkali and rare earth metals. In addition, the invention relates to the use of a base compound selected from the group of alkali, earth alkali and rare earth metals for improving the catalytic properties of a catalyst, comprising copper and/or cobalt and/or nickel, wherein the catalyst exists in the form of a structured monolith.
Abstract:
The invention relates to catalysts and methods for producing the same, the catalysts being obtainable by contacting a monolithic catalyst support with a suspension which contains one or more insoluble or poorly soluble compounds of the elements selected from the group of elements including cobalt, nickel and copper. The invention further relates to the use of the catalyst of the invention in a method for the hydrogenation of organic substances, especially for the hydrogenation of nitriles and to a method for the hydrogenation of organic compounds, characterized by using a catalyst of the invention in the method.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for preparing a cyclic diamine, comprising the reaction of at least one cyclic alkene with a gas mixture (G) comprising dinitrogen monoxide to give at least one cyclic ketone and the subsequent conversion of the at least one cyclic ketone to a cyclic diamine. The invention also relates to the use of a cyclic diamine with primary and secondary amine functions thus obtained to prepare polyamides and polyurethanes.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a continuous process for the preparation of 3-aminomethyl-3,5,5-trimethylcyclohexylamine by reaction of a reactant stream comprising 3-cyano-3,5,5-trimethylcyclohexylimine with hydrogen and ammonia over hydrogenation catalysts, the process being characterized in that the basicity of the reaction mixture is increased during the reaction, by contacting the reaction mixture with a basic compound other than ammonia and/or with a basic catalyst after some of the 3-cyano-3,5,5-trimethylcyclohexylimine has undergone reaction.
