Abstract: The present invention relates to a loop-route production method and system for polyvinyl chloride, and belongs to the intersecting fields of coal chemicals, polymer materials and chemical machinery. Limestone and carbon materials such as coal are reacted in an oxygen-enriched high temperature furnace to obtain calcium carbide and carbon monoxide, and then acetylene and carbon monoxide are respectively produced from calcium carbide and dichloroethane (obtaining ethylene, etc., through methanol or ethanol); both of the end products are combined to form a closed-loop; acetylene and dichloroethane are reacted to produce a vinyl chloride monomer, which is polymerized to obtain polyvinyl chloride.

Abstract: Disclosed is a process for the synthesis of 1,1,2,3-tetrachloropropene (HCC-1230xa) using 1,1,3-trichloropropene (HCC-1240za) and/or 3,3,3-trichloropropene (HCC-1240zf) and Cl2 gas as the reactants, wherein the process takes place in a single reactor system. Before this invention, HCC-1230xa was made in a two-step process using HCC-1240za/HCC-1240zf and Cl2 gas, and the processing was conducted using two separate reactors.
Abstract: Useful processes for isolating the fluorinated products formed by reaction with 4-tert-butyl-2,6-dimethylphenylsulfur trifluoride (Fluolead) are disclosed. The processes comprise the conversion of the byproduct (formula I) to sulfinate ester (formula V), and to sulfonate eater (formula VI), and then to the water-soluble sulfonate salt (formula IV) in the presence of the fluorinated products.
Abstract: The present invention provides a simple three step process for the production of 1,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene (HFO-1234ze). In the first step, carbon tetrachloride is added to vinyl fluoride to afford the compound CCl3CH2CHClF (HCFC-241fb). HCFC-241fb is then fluorinated with anhydrous HF to afford CF3CH2CHClF (HCFC-244fa) in the second step. Dehydrochlorination of HCFC-244fa, in the third step, affords the desired product, CF3CH?CHF (HFO-1234ze). Following similar chemistry, vinyl chloride may be used in place of vinyl fluoride.

Abstract: A process for producing vinyl chloride monomer from ethylene and ethane having input of significant quantities of both ethane and ethylene in input streams to the affiliated reactor where hydrogen chloride in the reactor effluent is only partially recovered from the reactor effluent in the first unit operation after the ethane/ethylene-to-vinyl reaction step or stage. Steps are presented of oxydehydro-chlorination catalytic reaction of ethane, ethylene, hydrogen chloride, oxygen, and chlorine; cooling and condensing the reactor effluent stream; and separating the condensed raw product stream into vinyl chloride monomer and a reactor recycle stream.

Abstract: Ethylene is chlorinated in a reaction zone to form a product stream containing 1,2-dichloroethane, the latter being then thermally cracked in a cracking zone to form vinyl chloride. Light by-products formed during the thermal cracking step are chlorinated in a zone external and directly downstream of the reaction zone used for the preparation of the 1,2-dichloroethane product stream. The product stream leaving the chlorination reaction zone for the 1,2-dichloroethane are passed into said downstream zone so that the light by-products are chlorinated in the presence of said product stream.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to upgrading to commercially useful products heavy ends by-products formed during the manufacture of allyl chloride. These heavy ends by-products are upgraded by first reacting the by-products with an alcohol in the presence of a base and subsequently pyrolyzing the resultant ethers to produce a mixture of allyl chloride and a carbonyl compound. This process improves the overall yield of the allyl chloride and forms commercially useful carbonyl compounds.

This novel compound is synthesized by reacting a Grignard reagent XMgC.tbd.C(CH.sub.2).sub.6 X,X being Cl or Br, with (E)-2-butenyl chloride or bromide to form an ene-yne compound of the formula CH.sub.3 CH.dbd..sup.(E) CHCH.sub.2 C.tbd.C(CH.sub.2).sub.6 X and then partially hydrogenating this ene-yne compound.

Abstract: A novel compound cis-6-undecene-1-chloride is prepared by reacting cis-3-octene-1-chloride with metallic magnesium to give a Grignard reagent of the chloride and then reacting the Grignard reagent with 1-bromo-3-chloropropane in the presence of a lithium copper chloride as a catalyst. The inventive compound is a useful intermediate compound for the synthetic preparation of several kinds of so-called sexual pheromone compounds of noxious insects. As an example of such sexual pheromone compounds, the synthetic preparation of cis-9-tetradecenyl acetate is described.
Abstract: A compound is chlorinated with chlorine to produce chlorinated product and hydrogen chloride byproduct. Recovered hydrogen chloride byproduct is contacted with oxygen and a molten salt mixture containing the higher and lower valent chlorides of a multivalent metal, such as cuprous and cupric chloride, to effect recovery of the hydrogen chloride by enriching the molten salt content of the higher valent chloride. The molten salt, enriched in higher valent chloride, is then dechlorinated by use of a stripping gas, preferably hydrogen chloride, to produce a gaseous effluent containing stripped chlorine and the stripping gas, which is then recycled to the chlorination step. The presence of stripping gas, as a diluent, improves the chlorination operation.
