UN PROCEDIMIENTO PARA LA PREPARACION DE ESTERES OXALICOS.

摘要

A process for the preparation of oxalate esters by the catalytic oxidative carbonylation of an alkoxycycloalkene with carbon monoxide, an alcohol and oxygen or an oxygen-containing gas in the presence of a metal salt catalyst and an amine base. In addition, a catalytic amount of particular metal oxidizing salts is employed along with a catalytic amount of an acid or an amine salt compound. Alternatively various counterions and ligands of the metal salt catalysts may be employed.
