Alkylation of acetonitriles
Abstract
Abstract THIS INVENTION RELATES TO ALKALI METAL SALTS OF ORGANONITRILE CARBANIONS, ALKYLATED ORGANONITRILE HYDROCARBONS AND TO A PROCESS FOR THEIR FORMATION. THE ALKALI METAL SALT COMPOSITIONS ARE PREPARED BY REACTING AN ACTIVE ORGANIC METHYLENE COMPOUND CONTAINING AT LEAST ONE NITRILE SUBSTITUENT WITH AN AQUEOUS SOLUTION OF AN ALKALI METAL BASE IN THE PRESENCE OF A DIORGANO SULFOXIDE. THE ALKYLATED COMPOSITIONS CAN BE PREPARED BY REACTING THE ALKALI METAL SALTS OF THE ORGANONITRILE CARBANIONS WITH AN ORGANOHALIDE. ALTERNATIVELY, THE ALKYLATED COMPOSITIONS CAN BE PREPARED IN A ONE-STEP OPERATION BY REACTING THE ORGANONITRILE COMPOSITION WITH AQUEOUS ALKALI METAL BASE AND ORGANOHALIDE IN THE PRESENCE OF A DIORGANO SULFOXIDE, PREFERABLY DIMETHYL SULFOXIDE.
