Abstract:
The invention relates to dendritic macromolecules and their use in metaldentritic macroligand complex catalyzed processes, for example, hydroformylation. The use of metal dendritic macroligand complex catalysts in such processes faciliates the separation of desired product from catalyst, for example, by membrane filtration.

Abstract:
This invention relates to a process for producing one or more organic acids in high purity which process comprises (i) oxidizing in a liquid oxidation reactor one or more organic liquids with essentially pure oxygen or oxygen-enriched air containing at least about 50% oxygen, at a temperature sufficiently stable to prevent cycling of reaction rate, to produce a crude reaction product fluid, and (ii) refining said crude reaction product fluid to give said one or more organic acids in high purity. The oxidation temperature is preferably controlled to within about ±3° C. of a target temperature. The organic acids described herein is useful in a variety of applications, such as intermediates in the manufacture of chemical compounds, pharmaceutical manufacture and the like.
