  • Publication number: 20020188149
    Abstract: A mixed metal oxide, which may be an orthorhombic phase material, is improved as a catalyst for the production of unsaturated carboxylic acids, or unsaturated nitrites, from alkanes, or mixtures of alkanes and alkenes, by: contacting with a liquid contacting member selected from the group consisting of organic acids, alcohols, inorganic acids and hydrogen peroxide to form a contact mixture; recovering insoluble material from the contact mixture; and calcining the recovered insoluble material in a non-oxidizing atmosphere.
    Type: Application

  • Patent number: 5689007
    Abstract: Processes of preparing para substituted phenylamines, such as, p-phenylenediamines, and particularly, p-aminodiphenylamine. One process involves contacting phenylhydroxylamine with a nucleophilic reagent, such as aniline, in specified proportions and within a specified temperature range, in the absence of oxygen, and in the presence of a homogeneous acid catalyst, such as hydrochloric acid. A second process involves contacting phenylhydroxylamine with a nucleophilic reagent, such as aniline, in the presence of a solid acid catalyst, such as acidic zeolite Y, under reaction conditions.
