Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
99 words
A vapor process for preparing allylic esters of carboxylic acids which comprises reacting a mixture of lower alkyl carboxylate ester, water, and the corresponding carboxylic acid and alcohol with an olefin having an allylic carbon-hydrogen bond and oxygen in the presence of a catalyst consisting of a Group VIII noble metal, or its salts, or its oxides, or mixtures thereof and optionally a support and optionally a promoter selected from the group consisting of alkali metal carboxylates, alkaline earth metal carboxylates, the transition metals, their salts, gold or copper at a temperature of from about 100°C to about 200°C.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
99 words
A vapor process for preparing allylic esters of carboxylic acids which comprises reacting a mixture of lower alkyl carboxylate ester, water, and the corresponding carboxylic acid and alcohol with an olefin having an allylic carbon-hydrogen bond and oxygen in the presence of a catalyst consisting of a Group VIII noble metal, or its salts, or its oxides, or mixtures thereof and optionally a support and optionally a promoter selected from the group consisting of alkali metal carboxylates, alkaline earth metal carboxylates, the transition metals, their salts, gold or copper at a temperature of from about 100°C to about 200°C.
