Abstract:
The invention relates to a process for purifying an ionic liquid, which comprises the steps (a) partial crystallization of the ionic liquid from its melt and (b) separation of the crystals from the residual melt.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for purifying a composition (I) comprising at least one cyclic ketone having from 7 to 16 carbon atoms, which comprises thermal treatment of the composition (I) with a catalyst comprising at least one transition metal and further purification by means of a process selected from the group consisting of distillation, extraction and crystallization. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a process for preparing cyclododecanone, which comprises such a purification, and the use of at least one catalyst comprising at least one transition metal for purifying a composition (I) comprising at least one cyclic ketone having from 7 to 16 carbon atoms by thermal treatment of the composition (I) with a catalyst comprising at least one transition metal.
Abstract:
The present application relates to a process for reacting a composition I comprising at least one aldehyde with hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst in at least one main reactor and at least one postreactor, wherein at least 50% of the fresh hydrogen fed to the reaction system is fed into at least one postreactor. In a preferred embodiment, composition I comprises at least one further organic compound.
Abstract:
A process for working up by distillation the crude products obtained in the process according to DE-A 196 07 954 and containing 1,6-hexanediol (HDO), 1,5-pentanediol (PDO) or caprolactone (CLO) in order to obtain the corresponding pure products, the working-up by distillation being carried out in each case in a dividing wall column (TK) in which a dividing wall (T) is arranged in the longitudinal direction of the column with formation of an upper common column region (1), a lower common column region (6), a feed section (2, 4) having a rectification section (2) and stripping section (4), and a take-off section (3, 5) having a stripping section (3) and rectification section (5), with feeding of the respective crude product HDO, PLO or CLO in the middle region of the feed section (2, 4) and removal of the high boiler fraction (C) from the bottom of the column, of the low boiler fraction (A) via the top of the column and of the medium boiler fraction (B) from the middle region of the take-off section (3, 5), or in thermally coupled columns.

Abstract:
A process is disclosed for the purification, by distillation, of trimethylolpropane originating from the hydrogenation of 2,2-dimethylolbutanal, said process including the following steps: (a) reaction of n-butyraldehyde with formaldehyde in the presence of catalytic amounts of a tertiary amine, and hydrogenation of the resulting mixture to give a mixture containing trimethylolpropane; (b) separation of water, methanol, trialkylamine and/or trialkylammonium formate by distillation; (c) heating of the residue obtained in (b) under reduced pressure to a temperature at which TMP is volatile and compounds boiling above TMP are cleaved, in order to separate off, by distillation, TMP and compounds more volatile than TMP; (d) distillation of the distillate obtained in (c) in order to separate off the more volatile compounds and recover pure TMP; and (e) optional distillation of the TMP obtained in (d) in order to recover TMP with a low APHA color index. A process is also disclosed in which trialkylammonium formate is distilled under mild conditions from crude mixtures of polyhydric alcohols, predominantly trimethylolpropane.
Abstract:
A process for purifying crude piperidines of the formula I ##STR1## where R.sup.1 to R.sup.4 are C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 -alkyl, or R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 and/or R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 together are a CH.sub.2 -chain of 2 to 5 carbons, which comprises, in a first step, removing high-boiling substances and, if present, water from the crude piperidines by distillation; in a second step, adding from 0.01 to 5% by weight, based on the product of the first step, as a reducing agent; and, in a third step, isolating the piperidines by distillation.
