Abstract:
The invention provides branched hydrophobes for the production of surfactants with improved properties over linear hydrophobes. The invention also provides branched C10-12 enals and aldehydes. The invention additionally provides branched C10-12 enals and aldehydes that are oxidized to branched fatty acids or hydrogenated to branched fatty alcohols and further derivatized to surfactants, through ethoxylation or esterification and other or subsequent reactions. The enals and aldehydes are useful in making branched trialkylamine intermediates useful in making certain surfactants, including amphoteric, cationic and nonionic surfactants. The surfactants which can be produced from the trialkylamine intermediates include the quaternary ammonium compounds of the invention. The quaternary ammonium compounds of the invention are also useful in making the branched enals and/or aldehydes useful in the invention.

Abstract:
p-Nitrophenolic compounds, e.g., p-nitrophenol itself, are selectively prepared by (a) reacting a phenolic compound with a nitrosating agent in the presence of sulfuric acid, the concentration of which H.sub.2 SO.sub.4 being at least 60%, (b) oxidizing the p-nitrosophenolic compound thus formed with nitric acid, the concentration of sulfuric acid in the medium of reaction, upon completion of oxidation, being no greater than 80%, and (c) separating the p-nitrophenolic compound which thus precipitates.

Abstract:
Disclosed is a method for selectively separating 2-nitrosophenol from an isomeric mixture containing 2-nitrosophenol and 4-nitrosophenol by contacting the mixture with an organic solvent so as to preferentially dissolve the 2-nitrosophenol from the mixture.
Abstract:
C-Nitrosodiarylamines may be prepared in a single stage from diarylamines by adding alcoholic solutions of a hydrogen halide below the surface of a stirred mixture of the diphenylamine in an organic liquid containing water. The amount of water contained is critical, and amounts from about 1 to about 3 g per mole of diarylamine are preferred.
Abstract:
The invention provides a process for the preparation of 4-nitrom-cresol which includes nitrosating m-cresol by simultaneously introducing separate streams of m-cresol and a nitrosating agent into a quantity of cold aqueous acid to form 4-nitroso-m-cresol and thereafter introducing both sodium nitrate and nitric acid to effect the oxidation of the nitroso compound to form 4-nitro-mcresol.
