Abstract: Process for oxidating paraffinic compounds in order to yield the corresponding alcoholic and/or ketonic compounds, which process consists of reacting said paraffins with an aqueous solution of hydrogen peroxide, possibly dissolved in a solvent, by operating at a temperature comprised within the range of from 0.degree. C. to 100.degree. C., in the presence of a titanium-silicalite of formulapHMO.sub.2.qTiO.sub.2.SiO.sub.2whereinM is a metal selected from among aluminum, gallium and iron,p is comprised within the range of from 0 to 0.05 andq is comprised within the range of from 0.0001 to 0.04, and the H.sup.+ of HMO.sub.2 can be least partially replaceable or replaced by cations.

Abstract: A process for the epoxidation of olefinic compounds, consisting of reacting said compounds with hydrogen peroxide either introduced as such or produced by substances capable of generating it under the reaction conditions, in the presence of synthetic zeolites containing titanium atoms, of general formula:xTiO.sub.2.(1-x)SiO.sub.2,where x lies between 0.0001 and 0.04, and possibly in the presence of one or more solvents, operating at a temperature of between 0.degree. and 150.degree. C., and at a pressure of between 1 and 100 ata.

Abstract: A process for the synthesis of glycol monomethylethers consisting of reacting an olefin compound, methanol and hydrogen peroxide in aqueous solution in the presence of synthetic zeolites containing titanium atoms, of general formula:xTiO.sub.2.(1-x)SiO.sub.2,where x lies between 0.0001 and 0.04.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for the preparation of thiocarbamic acid esters by reacting an aminic compound with carbon monoxide and an organic disulphide. Elemental selenium is used as the catalyst, possibly supplemented by a tertiary amine. The temperature and pressure ranges are comparatively wide.
