- Synthesis of dipentaerythritol from pentaerythritol under acidic conditions
-
The direct synthesis of dipentaerythritol (DPE) from pentaerythritol (PE) was studied under acidic conditions. After optimization of the reaction parameters in a batch reactor, DPE was obtained with 50% selectivity when 50% PE was converted. This process, using PE in suspension in sulfolane (PE/sulfolane ratio = 2333 g/L) at 175 °C for 60 min, required a low amount of sulfuric acid (0.5 mol %). The optimized conditions were transposed to a 140 grams scale process. Finally, DPE was isolated with 16% yield (72% gas chromatography, GC purity) for 28% conversion of PE that corresponds to 57% DPE selectivity.

- Solvent-Free Approaches for Preparing Dipentaerythritol from Pentaerythritol and 3,3-Bis(hydroxymethyl)oxetane
-
Solvent-free synthesis of dipentaerythritol (DPE) from pentaerythritol (PE) and 3,3-bis(hydroxymethyl)oxetane (BHMO) was studied. DPE is known to be an attractive raw material in lubricating and coating fields. Reactivity of PE with BHMO was considered under acidic and basic conditions. After optimization of the reaction parameters, best yields of DPE were obtained using a Lewis acid catalyst (aluminum triflate) (33%) and using a basic catalyst (potassium hydroxide) (31%).

- METHOD OF PREPARING PENTAERYTHRITOL
-
A method of preparing monopentaerythritol, dipentaerthritol, and sodium formate through high temperature condensation and cascade recrystallization is disclosed. The method lowers the energy consumption dramatically and improves the cost-effectiveness by carrying out the reaction in a non-low-temperature zone, and thereby avoiding the requirement for refrigeration. The method alleviates the difficulty of separation and improves the product quality by means of cascade separation process, and thereby avoiding the low purity from a single separation. In addition, the mother liquor obtained after each separation step is recycled to the previous step as the recycling liquor, which avoids discharging waste, increases the product yield and lowers raw materials consumption.

- SIDE REACTIONS LEADING TO ETHERS AND ACETALS.
-
Condensation of formaldehyde with acetaldehyde results in formation of dipentaerythritol and a number of similar byproducts whose molecules include five-carbon units with central carbon atoms, linked by ether or acetal bonds. A reaction mechanism is proposed for the condensation of formaldehyde with acetaldehyde with formation of byproducts. The proposed mechanism is verified experimentally. The results of photometric measurements at 280 nm during the course of the process provide direct experimental confirmation of the rapid reversibility of the main and side reactions, ensuring the observed interrelationships of the reaction system. The experimental observations demonstrate that the reversible reactions of the process are interrelated, as is indicated by the proposed mechanism. It is concluded that proposed mechanism with side reactions of formation of dipentaerythritol and similar products from pentaerythritol and unsaturated intermediate aldehydes is correct.
