Abstract: The present invention provide a method for producing 2-cyclohexene-1-ol which comprises using a catalyst containing an inetermetallic compound of palladium and lead and/or bismuth when cyclohexenyl hydroperoxide is subjected to hydrogenolysis to produce 2-cyclohexene-1-ol.If the catalyst of the present invention is employed, it is possible to obtain the desired 2-cyclohexene-1-ol at a high selectivity with a much simpler reaction system than the prior art and, in addition, to inhibit the hydrogenation of coexisting cyclohexene sufficiently.

Abstract: A novel propylene glycol cyclohexyl ether derivative represented by formula I is disclosed. ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 represents a straight or branched alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, or a cycloalkyl group having 3 to 6 carbon atoms; R.sup.2 represents a hydrogen atom or a hydroxyl group; and n represents an integer of from 1 to 3.This propylene glycol cyclohexyl ether derivative is not only extremely safe by virtue of its low toxicity and high flash point, but also has excellent detergency, low viscosity, and can impart a high film-forming ability to a resin emulsion. Further, this propylene glycol cyclohexyl ether derivative also has high hydrophobicity (and hence low water-solubility), so that it can minimize the cost and labor for disposal of waste water. Therefore, this propylene glycol cyclohexyl ether derivative is useful in various applications, for example, as a detergent, as a solvent for a wide variety of applications and as a film-forming agent.

Abstract: Manufacture of a diphenylmethane diisocyanate for an N-phenylcarbamate is economically accomplished in high yield with high selectivity by a method which comprises (A) a process of methylenation for the formation of a condensation product containing at lest 80 mol % of a dinuclear diphenylmethane dicarbamate by the steps of (1) causing a methylenating agent to react upon at least 2 moles of an N-phenylcarbamate, based on 1 mole of the methylene group of said methylenating agent, in a liquid phase in the presence of an aqueous inorganic acid solution, (2) separating the resultant reaction mixture into the aqueous inorganic acid solution and an organic phase reaction mixture containing substantially none of said inorganic acid, and (3) subsequently treating said organic phase reaction mixture in the presence of an N-phenylcarbamate and a carboxylic acid having a pKa of not more than 4 in an aqueous solution at a temperature of 25.degree. C.

Abstract: A method of inhibiting corrosion of metals comprising applying to a metal surface in an effective concentration a saturated aliphatic triamine of 9 carbon atoms having at each terminal position a primary amino group and being branched in the 4-position of the main chain Such specific triamines include 1,3,6-triaminomethylhexane and 1,2,3-triaminoethylpropane. Addition products and condensation products derived from these organic triamines are also effective. The present anti-corrosive agents show a remarkable rust preventive effect to metals even when used in a small amount and are non-toxic.
