Process for the manufacture of epichlorohydrin using hydrogen peroxide and a manganese komplex

摘要

The invention relates to a process for the manufacture of epichlorohydrin ("ECH")
- by catalytic oxidation of allyl chloride ("AC") with an oxidant wherein the catalytic oxidation is performed in an aqueous reaction medium, wherein a water-soluble manganese complex is used as oxidation catalyst,
- followed by the isolation of epichlorohydrin.
