Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for producing nitrobenzene, in which the waste gas streams accruing in the process and containing benzene and (traces of) nitrobenzene, possibly low- and medium-boiling components, possibly non-condensable gases and possibly water, optionally after removal of nitrogen oxides, are scrubbed in an absorption column with nitrobenzene, which comprises only very small amounts (maximum 50 ppm) of benzene and is distributed by means of a liquid distributor at a rate of 50 to 200 drip points per square metre, preferably 60 to 120 drip points per square metre, wherein (i) a liquid stream containing benzene and nitrobenzene, possibly organic low- and medium-boiling components and additionally containing sulfuric acid if sulfuric acid is used as the scrubbing agent and (ii) waste gas depleted in benzene and possibly in organic low- and medium-boiling components are obtained. A waste gas purified by the method according to the invention is particularly suitable for burning in a thermal exhaust air treatment process.

Compounds having therapeutic potential as androgen receptor modulators, and methods of making such compounds, are provided. The compounds are structurally related to bicalutamide but bear at least one difluoromethyl or C2 to C5 perfluoroalkyl group instead of a trifluoromethyl group.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process and a plant for the production, in particular the continuous production, of nitrobenzene by means of adiabatic nitration of benzene with nitric acid in the presence of sulfuric acid, in which, following the nitration, a multi-stage concentration of the sulfuric acid is carried out by means of heating at a pressure that is reduced as compared with ambient pressure, and wherein the heating takes place using the heat generated in the adiabatic nitration of benzene.
Abstract:
A method for making mononitrobenzene using a plug flow reactor train. Benzene, nitric acid and sulfuric acid are introduced into the reactor and produced mononitrobenzene is removed at an outlet end. All of the benzene and at least part of the sulfuric acid are introduced at the inlet end of the reactor. A first portion of the nitric acid is introduced by a first nitric acid feed into the inlet end and a second portion of the nitric acid is introduced at one or more additional feeds that are spaced between the inlet end and the outlet end. The method results in reduced formation of by-product dinitrobenzene, improving the reaction yield of mononitrobenzene while avoiding the need for a distillation step.

Abstract:
A continuous process to nitrate a nitratable aromatic compound utilizing nitric acid and sulfuric acid feed stocks is described. The process includes the collecting of NO.sub.x O gases with water under pressure to and treating the NO.sub.x gases with water under pressure to produce weak nitric acid which is recycled to the nitric acid feed stock. The process is efficient, permitting the venting of NO.sub.x free gases to the atmosphere.

Abstract:
An improved preparation process for an aromatic mononitro compound comprising reacting an aromatic compound with mixed acid consisting of nitric acid, sulfuric acid or phosphoric acid and water, wherein these flow to react with each other in a reactor comprising a tube inside of which more than one twisted tabular members are aligned in sequence in a manner that a front margin of a twisted tabular member is substantially perpendicular to an back margin of the preceding member, can resolve a number of problems such as an inadequate mixing efficiency, reduction of a reaction rate, associated voluminal increase/complication of a reactor and difficulty in securing safety as well as provide the aromatic mononitro compound with minimal amount of by-products in a considerably short period.
Abstract:
Nitroaromatic compounds are produced by continuously reacting an aromatic compound with nitrating acid. The reaction mixture is separated into an organic phase from which the desired nitroaromatic compound is recovered and an acid phase. The acid phase is subjected to flash evaporation to remove at least 5% by weight of the water present therein. The vapors generated during the flash evaporation are introduced into a jet spray of coolant to produce a condensate made up coolant, condensed vapors and suspended organic compounds. A portion of the condensate is subjected to phase separation to remove water and organic compounds present therein. The water and organic compounds may be reused. The process of the present invention is particularly advantageous in that deposits which block pipelines and interfere with heat transfer are not generated.
