    Abstract: PCT No. PCT/EP96/05437 Sec. 371 Date Sep. 1, 1998 Sec. 102(e) Date Sep. 1, 1998 PCT Filed Dec. 5, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO97/23452 PCT Pub. Date Jul. 3, 1997A method for the isolation of 2-hydroxy-4-methylthiobutyric acid (MHA), wherein MHA is isolated from a reaction mixture obtained by addition of hydrogen cyanide (HCN) to methylmercaptopropionaldehyde (MMP) and hydrolysis by sulphuric acid of the methylmercaptopropionaldehyde cyanohydrin (MMP-CH) thus obtained. The reaction mixture is brought into contact in a liquid/liquid extraction system with an organic solvent substantially immiscible with water, in order to form an extraction solution which contains the solvent and the MHA transferred out of the reaction mixture. By bringing the salt content of the reaction mixture, prior to the liquid/liquid extraction, to a concentration of about >50 wt. % (wt./wt.), preferably >55 wt. %, referred to the sum of the inorganic constituents of the reaction mixture, the coordinated use of energy in the total system is improved, the evaporation of strongly corrosive solutions is avoided, the efficiency of the hydrolysis step is increased and the distribution coefficients during the extraction are improved. The MHA is isolated as the extract from this extraction solution by evaporation, and may be used as animal feed supplement.

    Abstract: In the preparation of 2,3,5-trimethyl-hydroquinone diesters (I) by catalytic acylation of keto-isophorone (II), the acylating agent is a carboxylic anhydride containing a 1-4C alkyl residue, the reaction solution is cooled to -10 to 35 (preferably 0-30) degrees C, the crystallized (I) is filtered off and the filtrate is recycled to the acylation. In the preparation of 2,3,5-trimethyl-hydroquinone diesters (I) by catalytic acylation of keto-isophorone (II), the acylating agent is a carboxylic anhydride containing a 1-4C alkyl residue, the reaction solution is cooled to -10 to 35 (preferably 0-30) degrees C (optionally after distilling off part of the obtained carboxylic acid (III)), the crystallized (I) is filtered off and the filtrate is recycled to the acylation (optionally after distilling off part of (III) and/or discarding part of the filtrate).

    Abstract: PCT No. PCT/EP95/02515 Sec. 371 Date Jan. 13, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Jan. 13, 1997 PCT Filed Jun. 28, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO96/01809 PCT Pub. Date Jan. 25, 1996It is known to isolate MHA from a reaction mixture obtained by the addition of hydrocyanic acid (HCN) to methyl mercaptopropionic aldehyde (MMP) and the hydrolysis of the methyl mercapto propionic aldehyde cyanohydrine (MMP-CH) obtained thereby with sulphuric acid, in which the reaction mixture is brought into contact with a substantially non-water-miscible organic solvent, in order to form an extraction solution having the solvent and MHA transferred from the reaction mixture, and the MHA is obtained as an extract from this extraction solution by concentration. The simplest and most economical process of the invention concerning the processing of the reaction product which facilitates the production of a highly concentrated product with an extremely low dimer, oligomer and by-product content, is characterised in that the concentration is conducted in such a way that the remaining extract contains less than 4 wt % and preferably less than 2 wt % of water. Animal feed supplement, mixtures for supplementing animal feed, e.g. with methionine or ammonium-MHA.
