Abstract:
The present invention provides a process for preparing a pentenoic ester, comprising heating a 3-, 4-formylvaleric ester or mixtures thereof at 50° C. to 400° C. in the presence of a supported noble metal catalyst. The noble metal catalyst is supported on a mixed oxide (M1)a(M2)b(M3)cPdAle SiOx, wherein M1 is an alkali metal, M2 is an alkaline earth metal, M3 is a Group IVB metal, a=0.5˜1.5, b=0.2˜0.8, c=0.2˜0.8, d=2˜8, e=3˜10, and x is the stoichiometric value. By means of the specific supported catalyst of the present invention, the selectivity of the 3- and 4-pentenoic esters can be increased and that of the 2-pentenoic ester can be greatly decreased.
Abstract:
A heterogeneous catalytic chlorination process for making chlorinated aromatic compounds with high para-selectivity. Examples of chlorinated aromatic compounds that can be prepared using the process disclosed in the present invention include those compounds represented by the following formula: ##STR1## wherein R can be a C1-C3 alkyl, floride, chloride, bromide, iodide, or hydroxyl group. The chlorination process utilizes a de-aluminated zeolite which is prepared by H.sub.4 EDTA or Na.sub.4 EDTA extraction of L-type zeolite to reduce the alumina content thereof. The SiO.sub.2 /Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 ratio of the de-aluminated zeolite is preferably between about 9 and about 40. The de-aluminated zeolite can be ion-exchanged with Group IA or IIA metal ions to further improve its para-selectivity.

Abstract:
An improved process for the esterification of carboxylic acid and alcohols into carboxylic ester is disclosed. It comprises the steps of: (a) charging the esterification reactants into a fixed bed reactor under a predetermined reaction condition; and (b) reacting the esterification reactants in the fixed bed reactor. The fixed bed reactor contains acidic catalysts that are present in a solid phase, and the reaction condition is controlled such that (i) the reactants and the products co-exist in a gas-liquid two-phase equilibrium in the fixed bed reactor and that (ii) at least one component of the reactants is present in one phase and at least one component of the products is present in another phase. Because a phase change is always taking place concurrently with the esterification reaction; the reaction stream is maintained at a relatively uniform temperature. This greatly reduces the chances of catalyst poisoning and minimizes the formation of undesired by-products such as polymers/oligmers and ethers, which are often produced at high temperatures. The concurrent phase change also contributes to the extremely high reaction yield and selectivity, typically better than 90%, observed in the present invention.
