The influence of various heterogeneous bases on yields was studied. Good yields and high selectivity were obtained. Solvent-free, mild reaction condition, short reaction time, and easy purification were the merits of this method. The catalytic system （IL-hase） could also be recycled after the extraction of products with ether.展开更多

In the model, a modified equation for the relationship between point activity and effective diffusion coefficient was proposed. It is found that the simulation results fit the experimental data well and the breakthrough time of the bed layer is predicted accurately. By modeling the alkylation process, the time-space distribution of butene and point activity profiles of catalysts can be obtained. Furthermore, the reasons for the deactivation of solid acid catalysts were investigated. It indicates that the main reason for the deactivation of catalysts is the site coverage near the inlet of the reactor, while it is ascribed to the steric effect in the region far away from the inlet.展开更多

The effects of these halides on the polymer yield, molecular weight,crosslinking reaction, cyclization and polymer microstructure, have been investigated. Twomain side reactions, crosslinking and cyclization, were suppressed and reduced by theaddition of the halides. The proportion of 1, 4 units of polymer chains was increasedby the presence of the halides, which reduced the polymer yield and the molecular weightof polymers.展开更多

Three types of (E)-a-alkenyl-g-butyrolactone compounds were synthesized by condensation of corresponding aldehydes and g-butyrolactone, using MeONa and EtONa as base. Then the a-alkyl-g-butyrolactones were gained by reducing the former alkenyl compounds through catalytic transfer hydrogenation under Pd/C catalyst with sodium hypophosphite at room temperature.展开更多
