  • Preparation of carboxylic acids
    Patent number: 4356320
    Abstract: A carboxylic acid, such as acetic acid, is prepared from a hydrocarbyl alcohol, such as methanol, in carbonylation processes comprising the use of an iodide, carbon monoxide and a nickel catalyst in the presence of a promoter comprising an organo-phosphorus compound wherein the phosphorus is trivalent.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 6, 1977
    Date of Patent: October 26, 1982
    Assignee: The Halcon SD Group, Inc.

  • Novel 2-bromoethyl tellurium bromides
    Patent number: 4271090
    Abstract: The novel bis (2-bromoethyl) tellurium dibromide and 2-bromoethyl tellurium tribromide are prepared by reacting ethylene with a source of tellurium tetrabromide in an inert, non-basic organic solvent under certain temperature conditions and in the substantial absence of molecular oxygen.

  • Process for converting thallium (I) to thallium (III)
    Patent number: 4115419
    Abstract: A monovalent thallium compound is converted to a trivalent thallium compound by treating the thallium (I) compound with an organic hydroperoxide in the presence of a Group VIII noble metal catalyst in a liquid medium and in the presence of a promoter comprising a member selected from the group consisting of alkali metal compounds and heterocyclic tertiary amines, to oxidize the thallium (I) compound to a thallium (III) compound.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 21, 1977
    Date of Patent: September 19, 1978
    Assignee: Halcon International, Inc.
    Inventors: Anthony N. Naglieri, Nabil Rizkalla
  • Conversion of thallium (I) to thallium (III)
    Patent number: 4058542
    Abstract: A monovalent thallium compound is converted to a trivalent thallium compound by treating the thallium (I) compound with molecular oxygen in the presence of a Group VIII noble metal catalyst and in the presence of a promoter comprising a heterocyclic tertiary amine to oxidize the thallium (I) compound to a thallium (III) compound.
    Type: Grant
