PROCESS FOR PREPARATION OF DOPO-DERIVED COMPOUNDS AND COMPOSITIONS THEREOF

摘要

This invention relates to a process for producing compounds derived from 9,10- Dihydro-9-Oxa-10-Phosphaphenantrene-10-oxide (DOPO). In particular, the invention relates to producing DOPO-derived compounds by reacting DOPO with diol compounds in the presence of a catalyst. This invention also relates to DOPO derived composition containing a high melting point diastereomer. The DOPO derived compounds may be useful as flame-retardants.
