Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for continually producing 1,3-dioxolan-2-ones such as ethylene carbonate or propylene carbonate by reacting a corresponding oxirane with carbon dioxide in liquid phase in the presence of a catalyst. The reaction is carried out in a two-part reactor. In the first part of the reactor, the reaction is carried out with back-mixing until a conversion rate of oxirane II of at least 80 % has been reached. In the second part, the reaction is completed under conditions without back-mixing, the carbon dioxide being guided to the oxirane II in a counterflow throughout the reactor.
Abstract:
A process for the continuous production of 1,3-dioxolan-2-ones such as ethylene carbonate or propylene carbonate by reacting a corresponding oxirane with carbon dioxide in the liquid phase in the presence of a catalyst comprises conducting the reaction in a two-part reactor in whose first part the reaction is taken with backmixing to a conversion of not less than 80% of the oxirane II and in whose second part the reaction is completed under nonbackmixing conditions, and passing the carbon dioxide in countercurrent to the oxirane II in the entire reactor.
Abstract:
Etherified polyoxyalkylene derivatives of the formula where R1 is hydrogen, C1-C20-alkyl or C3-C5-alkenyl, R2 and R3 independently of one another are each hydrogen, methyl or ethyl, R4 is C1-C4-alkyl and m and n are identical or different and are each greater than or equal to 0, with the proviso that the sum of m and n is from 3 to 300, are prepared by reacting the corresponding hydroxyl-containing polyoxyalkylene derivative with a dialkyl sulfate in the presence of an alkali metal hydroxide by a process in which the reaction is carried out at from 20 DEG to 60 DEG C. in the presence of an aqueous solution of an alkali metal hydroxide, the concentration of alkali metal hydroxide during the entire duration of the reaction being not less than 35% by weight, based on the aqueous phase, and not less than 1 mole of dialkyl sulfate and not less than one mole of alkali metal hydroxide are used per mole equivalent of organic hydroxyl groups.

Abstract:
Tin phosphate-catalyzed reaction of a compound (A) containing at least one active hydrogen with an oxirane compound (B) is such that (A) is a mono-, di- or poly-hydric alcohol, a phenol, a primary or secondary amine, an amine, a carboxylic acid or ester, a sulfonic acid, a mercaptan, a phosphonic acid, a 1,3-dicarbonyl compound or a 1-alkyne. An Independent claim is also included for the use of tin phosphate catalysts in the production of hydroxyalkyl esters of unsaturated carboxylic acids.
