  • Hydrolysis of curcumin
    Patent number: 4927805
    Abstract: Curcumin is subjected to the action of heat and pressure in the presence of water by a continuous or batch process to produce vanillin and other natural flavor products. The proportion of vanillin in the final product varies with the pH of the reaction mixture.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 25, 1989
    Date of Patent: May 22, 1990
    Assignee: Mallinckrodt, Inc.
    Inventors: Joseph E. Dolfini, Jerome Glinka, Andrew C. Bosch
  • Hydrolysis of activated olefinic ketones and aldehydes
    Patent number: 4871881
    Abstract: Ketones or aldehydes containing one or more carbon-carbon double bonds and a carbonyl group conjugated with at least one double bond are hydrolyzed by the action of heat and pressure in the presence of water by a batch or continuous process. The ketone or aldehyde cleaves at the double bond conjugated with the carbonyl group to produce additional carbonyl-containing compounds.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 21, 1989
    Date of Patent: October 3, 1989
    Assignee: Mallinckrodt, Inc.
    Inventors: Joseph E. Dolfini, Jerome Glinka
  • Hydrolysis of activated olefinic ketones and aldehydes
    Patent number: 4810824
    Abstract: Ketones or aldehydes containing one or more carbon-carbon double bonds and a carbonyl group conjugated with at least one double bond are hydrolyzed by the action of heat and pressure in the presence of water by a batch or continuous process. The ketone or aldehyde cleaves at the double bond conjugated with the carbonyl group to produce additional carbonyl-containing compounds.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 20, 1987
    Date of Patent: March 7, 1989
    Assignee: Mallinckrodt, Inc.
    Inventors: Joseph E. Dolfini, Jerome Glinka
  • Method of catalytically hydrolyzing alpha, beta-unsaturated carbonyl compounds
    Patent number: 4766249
    Abstract: Alpha, beta-unsaturated carbonyl compounds are hydrolyzed under alkaline conditions in the presence of water to produce additional carbonyl-containing compounds. High yields are obtained when the alkaline catalyst contains hydroxide ion and the pH is maintained in the range of about 11 to about 13.
