    Abstract: Process for the preparation of 2-hydroxynaphthalene-6-carboxylic acid A process for the preparation of 2-hydroxynaphthalene-6-carboxylic acid using potassium carbonate and CO at temperatures above 260.degree.C and at a pressure of at least 10 bar comprises using 2-hydroxynaphthalene-3-carboxylic acid and/or 2-hydroxynaphthalene-3,6-dicarboxylic acid and/or their potassium salts and, if desired, potassium .beta.-naphtholate as starting materials. The process according to the invention enables a considerable inerease, by reusing the secondary products, in the product selectivity with regard to 2-hydroxy-naphthalene-6-carboxylic acid.

    Abstract: A method for the depletion of inorganic byproducts from product mixtures produced during the synthesis of metallocenes comprises treating the mixture, which contains one or more metallocenes and at least one inorganic byproduct, with a polar extraction agent. Also claimed is the use of polar extraction agents for removing inorganic byproducts from metallocene synthesis product mixtures. Preferably the mixture is a crude metallocene synthesis reaction product. The extraction agent contains 5 - 100 vol.% one or more polar solvents. The amount of inorganic byproducts is reduced to less than 5 wt.%. The byproducts are inorganic salts and / or covalent metal halides.

    Abstract: Process for preparing aromatic hydroxycarboxylic acids A process for preparing aromatic hydroxycarboxylic acids or di-salts thereof by reaction of alkali metal phenolates or naphtholates with carbon dioxide, in the presence or absence of a further alkali metal salt, which comprises introducing the solid phenolate or naphtholate starting materials and, if desired, the alkali metal salt into the reaction mixture batchwise or continuously, separately or together, in the form of a dispersion in an inert organic liquid. The process of the invention makes possible the preparation of aromatic hydroxycarboxylic acids in good yields and with high chemical selectivity. Additional measures for increasing the selectivity, as are described for the Kolbe-Schmitt reaction in, for example, EP-A 0 053 824, EP-A 0 081 753 and EP-A 0 254 596, can be omitted.
