Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
105 words
THE METHOD FOR PREPARING ESTERS WHILE SUPPRESSING THE FORMATION OF OXO COMPOUNDS FROM AN OLEFINIC REACTANT, CARBON MONOXIDE AND HYDROGEN, WHICH COMPRISES INTERACTING AN OLEFINIC COMPOUND SIMULTANEOUSLY WITH CARBON MONOXIDE, HYDROGEN AND AN ORGANIC CARBOXYLIC ACID, AND CONTINUING THE SAID INTERACTION IN THE PRESENCE OF A CATALYTIC QUANTITY OF AN ORGANIC CARBOXYLIC ACID SALT OF AN ELEMENT OF THE CLASS CONSISTING OF COBALT AND RUTHENIUM, AT A TEMPERATURE OF 140* TO 375* UNDER A PRESSURE IN EXCESS OF 300 ATMOSPHERESD UNTIL THE ESTER FORMED BY THE SAID INTERACTION IS PRODUCED AS THE CHIEF REACTION PRODUCT, AND THEREAFTER SEPARATING THE SAID ESTER FROM THE RESULTING MIXTURE.
