1,209,112. Dicarboxylic bis-glycol hemi-esters. BADISCHE ANILIN- & SODA-FABRIK A.G. 5 March, 1968 [6 March, 1967], No. 10553/68. Heading C2C. A process for the production of an aromatic or cycloaliphatic dicarboxylic bis-glycol hemiester comprises reacting the corresponding dicarboxylic acid with a 1,2-alkylene oxide at elevated temperatures and superatmospheric pressure in the presence of a solvent and catalyst wherein the starting materials are reacted in the presence of the dicarboxylic bis-glycol hemi-ester itself as at least the major proportion by weight of the solvent and catalyst throughout the reaction. The preparation of the bisglycol hemiester of terephthalic acid is exemplified; other suitable acids are phthalic, isophthalic, cyclohexane dicarboxylic and naphthalene dicarboxylic acids. |
