  • Process for synthesizing pyran nitriles
    Patent number: 4278602
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for synthesizing pyran nitriles of the general formula ##STR1## consisting of reacting aliphatic 1,5 hydroxyketones with aliphatic nitriles in the presence of basic substances such as oxides, hydroxides, and carbonates of alkali metal and alkaline earth metals, and in particular of alkali metal hydroxides or alcoholates, as the catalyst.

  • Splitting up pyran rings
    Patent number: 4226810
    Abstract: A chemical method for splitting the pyran ring of compounds such as 2,6,6-trimethyl-5,6-dihydro-4H-pyran is disclosed which consists in reacting the 4H-pyran derivatives concerned with water and a halogen-containing or halogen-donating catalyst at a comparatively low temperature, i.e. from 50.degree. C. to 130.degree. C. Interesting results are obtained and a selection field is afforded as regards the products of the pyran-ring cleavage.

  • Cyanomethyl substituted tetrahydropyrans useful as fragrances for detergents
    Patent number: 4150037
    Abstract: In the cyclization of gamma-delta or delta-epsilon unsaturated alcohols in order to obtain certain tetrahydrofuran and tetrahydropyran derivatives which are useful in the perfuming of detergents, the improvement consisting in that the alcohol to be cyclized is reacted with a cationic ion-exchange resin. The useful temperature range is from 20.degree. C. to 150.degree. C.: in practice the alcohol and the resinare boiled together or refluxed until the reaction is completed. A number of examples is reported and physicochemical data are given.

  • Acetylenic alcohols, their derivatives and process for their production
    Patent number: 4117249
    Abstract: The invention relates to acetylenic glycols having the formula : ##STR1## wherein R is hydrogen or an alkenyl group, and to their derivatives obtained through hydrogenation or ethoxylation reactions, these compounds showing outstanding surface active properties. The invention relates also to the process for the preparation of the subject compounds starting from 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one.

  • Method for the preparation of octene-nitrile organic compounds and compounds obtained thereby
    Patent number: 4028395
    Abstract: A method for the preparation of a certain class of octenenitriles is disclosed, which uses as the starting compound the 3,7-dimethyl-3-hydroxy-6-octenenitrile: the reaction is a simple dehydration reaction or, in certain cases, an esterification or etherification. The method as disclosed is very simple and cheap and the product thus obtained can be used in the perfume and cosmetic industry.
