  • Patent number: 9701632
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process to produce phthalimides by heating diammonium phthalate in the presence of aromatic solvents and to a process to produce phthalimides by heating diammonium phthalate in the presence of aromatic solvents for their recycled use during the ion exchanger production process. The diammonium phthalate is prepared by making use of the phthalic add salts solution resulted from the on exchanger production process.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7399890
    Abstract: The present process serves for the hydrodehalogenation of halogenated meta-cresols of the formula (I) in which the R1 to R4 radicals are each as defined in the description, and is characterized in that halogenated meta-cresols of the formula (I) are contacted with a catalyst which has been prepared by applying one or more salts of palladium and/or platinum and optionally copper salts to an aluminum oxide or titanium oxide support material, together with hydrogen, at temperatures between 100 and 250° C.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 5545779
    Abstract: Halogenated benzenes are hydrodehalogenated in a particularly advantageous manner and at low temperatures by contacting them at temperatures of between 100.degree. and 250.degree. C. together with hydrogen with a catalyst prepared by application of one or more salts of palladium and/or platinum and, if desired, of copper to an alumina or titanium dioxide support.

  • Patent number: 5523481
    Abstract: Dialkyl dicarbonates are obtained particularly advantageously from halogenoformic esters by reaction with alkalis in the presence of water-immiscible organic solvents and in the presence of a catalyst, if the catalyst used is benzylalkyldimethylammonium halides. The catalyst is then particularly easy to separate off and to recycle from the reaction mixture.

  • Patent number: 5466881
    Abstract: In the preparation of m-chloroaromatics by isomerizing corresponding o- and/or p-chloroaromatics in the liquid phase over zeolites, the activity of the zeolites remains at a high level for a particularly long time if the process is carried out in the presence of from 1 to 30 mol % of hydrogen, based on the chloroaromatics used.

  • Patent number: 5436377
    Abstract: In a particularly advantageous process for isolating m-dichlorobenzene from mixtures of dichlorobenzene isomers by crystallization as eutectic crystals using a processing aid, the processing aid used is a compound of the formula (I) ##STR1## in which R.sup.1 to R.sup.6 are, independently of one another, hydrogen, halogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl, hydroxyl, NH.sub.2 or R--CO-- having R=C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl,with 1-bromo-4-chlorobenzene and 1,4-dibromobenzene being excepted.
