Abstract

Abstract A process for the preparation of Alpha -keto-carboxylic acids for the formula: R-CO-COOH in which R represents an aliphatic, aromatic, aralkyl, alicyclic or heterocyclic radical which may or may not be substituted which comprises treating a Alpha -hydroxy carboxamide of the formula: WHEREIN A represents a hydrogen atom or an aliphatic or aralkyl radical, A'' and A'''' each represent an aliphatic or aralkyl radical or form, together with the carbon atom to which they are bonded, a cycloalkane residue and R represents an aliphatic, aromatic, aralkylic, alicyclic or heterocyclic radical which may or may not be substituted with an oxidizing agent, and hydrolysing in acid medium the Alpha -ketocarboxamide so obtained of the formula: WHEREIN A, A'', A'''' and R have the same meaning as above; Alpha -ketocarboxamides of the formula: WHEREIN R, A, A'' and A'''' have the meanings given above and 3,3dibenzylpyruvic acid.

Claim 1
Independent Claim 50 words
A PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF AN A-KETOCARBOXYLIC ACID OF THE FORMULA: R-CO-COOH, IN WHICH R IS SELECTED FROM THE GROUP CONSISTING OF ALIPHATIC, BENZYL, PHENYL AND ARALKYL RADICALS, WHICH CONSITS ESSENTIALLY OF THE SUCCESSIVE STEPS OF A. CONDENSING IN ACID MEDIUM A SECONDARY OR TERTIARY ALCOHOL OF THE FORMULA
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 50 words
A PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF AN A-KETOCARBOXYLIC ACID OF THE FORMULA: R-CO-COOH, IN WHICH R IS SELECTED FROM THE GROUP CONSISTING OF ALIPHATIC, BENZYL, PHENYL AND ARALKYL RADICALS, WHICH CONSITS ESSENTIALLY OF THE SUCCESSIVE STEPS OF A. CONDENSING IN ACID MEDIUM A SECONDARY OR TERTIARY ALCOHOL OF THE FORMULA
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 14 words
The process as defined in claim 1 wherein A, A'' and A'''' are methyl.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 21 words
The process as defined in claim 2 wherein said oxidizing agent is an aqueous solution of chromium trioxide and acetic acid.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 70 words
A process for the preparation of Alpha -ketocarboxylic acids of the formula R-CO-COOH, in which R is selected from the group consisting of aliphatic, benzyl, phenyl and aralkyl radicals, which consists essentially of the successive steps of a. condensing, in sulphuric acid medium, tertbutyl alcohol with a 2-hydroxy nitrile of the formula R-CHOH-CN in which R has the above meaning, to form the corresponding Alpha -hydroxy-N-tert-butyl carboxamide of the formula
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 70 words
A process for the preparation of Alpha -ketocarboxylic acids of the formula R-CO-COOH, in which R is selected from the group consisting of aliphatic, benzyl, phenyl and aralkyl radicals, which consists essentially of the successive steps of a. condensing, in sulphuric acid medium, tertbutyl alcohol with a 2-hydroxy nitrile of the formula R-CHOH-CN in which R has the above meaning, to form the corresponding Alpha -hydroxy-N-tert-butyl carboxamide of the formula
