Abstract: The invention describes electronic devices comprising a metal complex compound having a first metallic centre M1 and a second metallic centre M2 and a polydentate, asymmetrical ligand L1, which contains a phosphido or amido donor D1 bridging the first and second metallic centres M1 and M2, and a further donor D2, which is bonded either to the first or to the second metallic centre, and uses of a complex of this type in the electronic field and for the generation of light, and to the production of devices of this type.

Abstract: The invention relates to a mixer reactor of the rotor-stator type. This mixer reactor comprises a substantially rotationally symmetric housing which has a distributing chamber, a mixing chamber, a front plate that modifies the cross-section of the housing between these two chambers, and there are separate inlets into the mixing chamber for at least two substances and an outlet for removing the mixed material or product. The inlet for the first substance is provided in the axis of rotation of the mixing chamber. Two or more channels are aligned radially outward from this inlet, and the first substance is transported through these channels and into the mixing chamber. The inlet for the at least second substance is constructed in the form of a plurality of openings in the front plate, these inlet openings being are arranged rotationally symmetrically to the axis of rotation. Each of these inlet openings for the at least second substance has a corresponding pin which can be displaced in the axial direction.

Abstract: This invention relates to a process for the continuous preparation of nitrobenzene. This process comprises the adiabatic nitration of benzene with a mixture of sulfuric acid and nitric acid, in which the sum of the concentrations in the reaction zone of the metal ions which form sparingly soluble metal sulfates is less than 900 mg/l, based on the volume of the aqueous phase which contains sulfuric acid.

Abstract: The invention relates to a continuous process for the manufacture of nitrobenzene. This process comprises the nitration of benzene with nitrating acid that contains at least 3.0 wt. % of nitric acid and at least 67.0 wt. % of sulfuric acid, in a reaction space in which the start temperature of the reaction is above 100.0° C. but below 102.0° C. In addition, this process requires that the benzene and the nitrating acid are dispersed in one another several times.

Abstract: Meta-toluene-diisocyanate is produced by reacting meta-toluenediamine with phosgene in the gas phase. The meta-toluenediamine to be vaporized for use in this phosgenation process must contain less than 0.5 wt. % of toluenediamine residue, a total of less than 0.2 wt. % of ammonia and cycloaliphatic amines, and less than 20 ppm of heavy metals. At least 0.1 wt. % of the liquid meta-toluenediamine being to be vaporized must not be vaporized. This non-vaporized content of the meta-toluenediamine must not be fed to the phosgenation reactor.
