Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 76 words
The process for preparing a member selected from the group consisting of naphthyl carboxylate and an indene carboxylate consisting essentially of reacting tetralin or indane respectively with oxygen and a carboxylic acid having from 2 to 19 carbon atoms at a temperature of from 120° C. to 200° C. in the presence of a catalyst which contains the elements Pd/Sb/M wherein M is at least one member selected from the group consisting of K and Cr.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 76 words
The process for preparing a member selected from the group consisting of naphthyl carboxylate and an indene carboxylate consisting essentially of reacting tetralin or indane respectively with oxygen and a carboxylic acid having from 2 to 19 carbon atoms at a temperature of from 120° C. to 200° C. in the presence of a catalyst which contains the elements Pd/Sb/M wherein M is at least one member selected from the group consisting of K and Cr.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 18 words
