C07C 264 C07C 15067 C07C 266
US Classification:
585452
Abstract:
An alkylbenzene is alkylated with an alkene, in the presence of a sodium/potassium alloy catalyst, on a saturated carbon atom which is alpha to the ring at temperatures which are lower than the temperatures used in a current commercial process. In a pre-alkylation reaction, the catalyst is reacted with a compound which has a saturated carbon atom alpha to a double bond in order to form a catalytic species. Higher amounts of catalyst are used in the pre-alkylation reaction than in the analogous reaction of the current commercial process. Following alkylation, the phase which contains the alkylation product is separated from the phase which contains the catalytic species. The process produces less isomeric and other soluble byproducts, and enables the efficacious production of longer chain alkylbenzenes without the formation of insoluble tars characteristic of the current commercial process.
Disinfecting Composition And Wipes With Reduced Contact Time
A composition having a short disinfecting contact time is disclosed. The composition contains a biguanide or guanide, a quaternary ammonium compound and a basic compound in a specific weight ratio to one another. Compositions having less than a two minute disinfection time are disclosed.
