Abstract: Process for the purification of carbonyl chlorides which have been prepared by reacting carboxylic acids with phosgene or thionyl chloride in the presence of a catalyst adduct, in which the carbonyl chlorides are treated with a hydrohalide of carboxamides of the formula (I)
in which R1 is hydrogen or C1- to C3-alkyl; R2 and R3 independently of one another are C1- to C4-alkyl, or R2 and R3 together are a C4- or C5-alkylene chain, and the carbonyl chloride purified in this way is isolated by separation off from the carboxamide hydrohalide phase.

Abstract: A process that can be used to produce an acid anhydride or acid chloride is provided. The process comprises contacting a reaction medium with a catalyst. The reaction medium comprises at least one organic acid, combination of the organic acid and phosgene, combination of at least one organic anhydride and phosgene, or combinations of the organic acid, the organic anhydride, and phosgene. The reaction medium can further comprise a solvent. The catalyst is a Group IVB transition metal halide.
Abstract: Disclosed is a carbamyl chloride of an aminoarylcarbonyl compound having the structural formula I:
wherein
R is an alkyl, alkenyl, or aryl group;
A is an aryl (including heteroaryl) ring group;
each R′ is independently an alkyl group which may form a ring with Z or Z′;
p is 0, 1, 2, or 3;
each Z, Z′, and Y is independently hydrogen or a substituent; and
n is 0, 1, or 2.

Abstract: The invention is concerned with a process for preparing a C.sub.6 to C.sub.24 fatty acid halide by reacting a fatty acid with a halogenating agent, such as phosphorus trichloride, optionally followed by hydrolysis of unreacted halogenating agent separating and removing an inorganic lower layer to leave a turbid layer containing the fatty acid chloride product. The clearing time of the turbid layer is reduced by the addition of from 3 to 20% by weight of clear fatty acid halide thereto.
Abstract: A process for preparing carbonyl chlorides of the formula I ##STR1## where R is C.sub.1 -C.sub.30 -alkyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.30 -alkenyl or C.sub.2 -C.sub.30 -alkynyl, from essentially equimolar amounts of a carboxylic acid of the formula II ##STR2## where R has the abovementioned meanings, and phosgene COCl.sub.2 (III), in the presence of a catalytic adduct of phosgene and N,N-disubstituted formamide or the hydrochlorides thereof, of the formula IV where R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are each, independently of one another, C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 -alkyl or together are a C.sub.4 -C.sub.5 -alkylene chain which may be interrupted by oxygen or by nitrogen which carries C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 -alkyl or CHO, and n is 0, 1 or 2, wherein the reaction is carried out with a stationary phase of the catalytic adduct, is described.
