Abstract:
The invention relates to cosmetic compositions comprising certain polyethers, polyether derivatives (e.g., polymeric alcohols and derivatives thereof), and methods of making and using the same, specifically in the field of cosmetic or personal care compositions applied to the skin or the hair.
Abstract:
The invention relates to vicinal diol ether derivatives of certain polyether polymers, compositions comprising the same, and methods of making the same via reaction with substituted or unsubstituted epoxides, and methods of using the same.
Abstract:
The invention contemplates certain polyethers, polyether derivatives, and methods of making and using those same polymers. For example, the starting materials can, e.g., citronellol, prenol, isocitronellol and isoprenol.
Abstract:
The application relates to macrocyclic compounds and related polymers, as well as to processes for synthesizing them, e.g., using olefins as starting material.
Abstract:
The invention relates to substituted delta-lactones as well as to processes for synthesizing them, e.g., using fatty acids as starting material.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to methods for safe and efficient use of hydrogen and oxygen in ozonolysis operations. The invention also relates to an ozonolysis process involving elements of both reductive and oxidative ozonolysis which are integrated in a continuous process. In one embodiment, the ozonolysis process of the present invention uses hydrogen and/or oxygen generated from water and electricity, which may be recycled to generate water and/or electricity.
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides improved methods of performing ozonolysis on alkenes comprising non-reductive quenching of ozonide intermediates using Bronsted bases to yield aldehyde, ketone and/or carboxylic acid products.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to uses of vanadium to convert aldehydes and ozonides into their respective acids and/or ketones. More particularly, this invention relates to the oxidative work-ups following ozonolysis using vanadium, using vanadium during ozonolysis, and using vanadium to oxidize aldehydes in general. The invention also relates to methods comprising the ozonolysis of oleyl alcohol in the presence of either an acid or an alcohol.
Abstract:
The invention relates to the generation of compounds, e.g., fragrance molecules with desirable olfactory properties that can be derived from readily available fatty acids.
