    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for preparing p-chlorotoluene and/or m-chlorotoluene by ring-chlorination of toluene by using the following two pages (a) and (b) when further processing the toluene chlorination product composed of mixed isomers: (a) Isolation of p-chlorotoluene from a mixture of o-, m- and p-chlorotoluene by selective adsorption of p-chlorotoluene onto a mesoporous or macroporous zeolite and subsequent desorption of p-chlorotoluene (b) Treatment of an o-chlorotoluene-rich mixture of isomers with an isomerization catalyst. For the exclusive preparation of p-chlorotoluene first p-chlorotoluene is isolated and removed from the toluene chlorination product in stage (a). The remaining mixed isomers are then treated in stage (b) to increase their content of m- and p-isomers and then returned into stage (a). For the preparation of m-chlorotoluene and, if appropriate, additionally of p-chlorotoluene first the toluene chlorination product is treated in stage (b) to increase its content of m- and, if appropriate, p-isomer. p-Chlorotoluene is then isolated in stage (a) and returned to stage (b), or, if appropriate, removed. The remaining mixture essentially comprising o- and m-isomers is separated by distillation or adsorption and o-chlorotoluene is then returned into stage (b) and m-chlorotoluene is removed.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the preparation of optionally substituted cinnamic acid by reacting ketene and optionally substituted benzaldehyde in the presence of zinc salts of carboxylic acids having a chain length of 6 to 18 C atoms as catalyst, followed by heating the reaction product to 100 to 250@C in the presence of acidic or basic catalysts. The reaction of the benzaldehyde with ketene in the presence of the zinc salts is carried out in the absence of water, carboxylic acids and carboxylic anhydrides.
