Abstract: A method to make delta-valerolactone (“DVL”) by dehydrogenating 2-hydroxytetrahydropyran (“HTHP”). The HTHP is contacted with a supported-metal catalyst for a time, at a temperature, and at a pressure wherein at least a portion of the HTHP is converted to DVL via dehydrogenation of the HTHP. The HTHP may be derived from biomass. Thus, the method yields DVL without requiring a petroleum-based feedstock.

Abstract: Processes of forming an insulated wire into an interlayer dielectric layer (ILD) of a back-end metallization includes thermally treating a metallic barrier precursor under conditions to cause at least one alloying element in the barrier precursor to form a dielectric barrier between the wire and the ILD. The dielectric barrier is therefore a self-forming, self-aligned barrier. Thermal processing is done under conditions to cause the at least one alloying element to migrate from a zone of higher concentration thereof to a zone of lower concentration thereof to further form the dielectric barrier. Various apparatus are made by the process.
