  • Patent number: 9650250
    Abstract: The present invention provides an industrially advantageous method for producing bis(halosulfonyl)amine that makes it possible to inhibit the rapid generation of gas and reduce the amount of halogenating agent used by controlling the reaction rate among sulfamic acid, the halogenating agent and a halosulfonic acid to nearly a constant rate from the initial stage to the final stage of the reaction. The method for producing bis(halosulfonyl)amine of the present invention allows the obtaining of a bis(halosulfonyl)amine such as N-(fluorosulfonyl)-N-(chlorosulfonyl)amine or bis(chlorosulfonyl)amine by a production method that includes heating a mixture containing sulfamic acid and a halosulfonic acid to a temperature higher than room temperature, adding a halogenating agent thereto, and allowing to react while adjusting to a prescribed temperature.

  • Patent number: 8173845
    Abstract: A process is provided capable of producing 3-methylthiopropanal with subgeneration of high-boiling impurities being favorably inhibited. The process for producing 3-methylthiopropanal, includes reacting acrolein with methylmercaptan in the presence of a triallylamine compound represented by the formula (I): wherein each of R1 to R3 represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms. The reaction of acrolein with methylmercaptan is preferably performed further in the presence of an organic acid. The triallylamine compound represented by the formula (I) is preferably used in an amount of from 0.01 to 1.0 mol based on one mole of the organic acid and in an amount of from 0.1 to 2.0 mmoles based on one mole of methylmercaptan.
