    Abstract: In the prodn. of ClCH2COOH (I) by reaction of liq. CH3COOH with gaseous Cl2 in the presence of a halogenation catalyst, the CH3COOH is passed through the reaction zone at a rate of 0.1-20 kg/hr/l in cocurrent with 0.5-1.5 times this amt. of Cl2, the residence time of the gas phase being 1-60 sec. and the residence time of the liq. phase being 1-100 times this value. The phases thus flow through the reaction zone without significant mixing and the reaction takes place at the phase interface. Products contg. 1 wt. % Cl2CHCOOH are obtained. (I) is used as a preservative, a solvent and a starting material for the prodn. of dyes, pesticides, plasticisers and synthetic resins.

    Abstract: Prepn. of glycine nitriles of formula R3R4N.CR5R6.CN (I) comprises reacting amnes R3R4NH (III) with carbonyl cpds R5COR6 (IV) and HCN in presence of water for 0.1-4 hrs. at 0-80 degrees C. The condn. of HCN never exceeds 0.9 wt. % of the reaction mixt. In the formulae, R3-6 are aromatic, cycloaliphatic or araliphatic gps.; R3 and R4 may together complete a heterocycle; R4-6 may also be H, and R5 and R6 may also be aliphatic, and when R5 and/or R6 is aliphatic aromatic, cycloaliphatic or araliphatic, then R3 and R4 can also be aliphatic. Pref. the products where R3-6 are aromatic gps., R5 and R6 may also be H, aliphatic, cycloaliphatic or araliphatic, and R4 may be H, are subsequently treated with an acid at pH 1-7. (I) are stabilisers; intermediates for dyes (e.g. indigo) fungicides, bactericides, textile auxiliaries and antigelling agents; and by saponification give glycine salts useful as selective adsorbents for CO2, SO2 and H2S, and by hydrogenation give assymetric diamines useful for making pharmaceuticals and plant protection agents. Cf. the process of DT 1543342. This method is simpler and more economic giving better yields of purer products. Water pollution and formation of resinous by-products are minimised, and subsequent acid treatment obviates expensive purification steps and avoids losses of solvent.
