    Abstract: N-Vinyl-N-alkyl-carboxylic acid amides are prepared, starting from N-ethyl-carboxylic acid amides, in a 3-stage process consisting of the following stages:a) anodic alkoxylation of the N-ethyl-carboxylic acid amides to give N-.alpha.-alkoxyethyl-carboxylic acid amides:b) alkylation of these N-.alpha.-alkoxyethyl-carboxylic acid amides with an alkyl halide or dialkyl sulfate in an alkaline medium to give N-.alpha.-alkoxyethyl-n-alkyl-carboxylic acid amides; andc) splitting off of alcohol from the products of stage b) by heating to temperatures between about 60 and about 350.degree.C. Instead of stages b) and c), it is also possible to carry out the following stages after stage a): b1) splitting off of alcohol from the N-.alpha.-alkoxyethyl-carboxylic acid amides obtained in stage a) by heating to temperatures of about 60 to about 600.degree.C, to give N-vinyl-carboxylic acid amider; and c1) alkylation of these N-vinyl-carboxylic acid amides by reaction with on alkylating agent of the same type in stage b) in an alkaline medium. The N-vinyl-N-alkyl-carboxylic acid amides obtained by the process are valuable ? ? ? .

    Abstract: PROCESS FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF p-BENZOQUINONE-DIKETALS of the disclosure: p-Benzoquinone-diketals of the formula I (I) in which R is H, (C1-C4)-alkyl or halogen, and R1 is (C1 C4)-alkyl, by anodic oxidation of benzene or an alkoxybenzene of the formulae (II) or (III) in which R and R1 are as defined in sub formula I, are prepared in methanol containing less than about 5 % by weight of water, in the presence of at least one alkali metal fluoride, ammonium fluoride and/or phosphonium fluoride as supporting electrolyte and a pH maintained below 7 by addition of HF. Especially advantageously, the anodic oxidation is carried out in a continuous-flow cell with the use of bipolar electrodes of glass-like carbon the cathode face of which is coated with a material reducing the hydrogen overvoltage, preferably titanium carbide.
