Method for Making an Epoxide Starting with a Polyhydroxylated Aliphatic Hydrocarbon and a Chlorinating Agent

摘要

Process for preparing an epoxide, wherein a reaction medium resulting from the reaction of a polyhydroxylated aliphatic hydrocarbon, an ester of a polyhydroxylated aliphatic hydrocarbon or a mixture thereof with a chlorinating agent, the reaction medium containing at least 10 g of chlorohydrin per kg of reaction medium, is subjected to a subsequent chemical reaction without intermediate treatment.
