Hydroformylation of 1-hexene in supercritical carbon dioxide: characterization, activity, and regioselectivity studies.

Development of Heterogeneous Catalysts for Hydroformylation of 1-hexene in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide

The hydroformylation of alkenes is a major commercial process used for the production of oxygenated organic compounds. Commercial hydroformylation processes may produce significant quantities of waste material. When the hydroformylation reaction is performed using a homogeneous catalyst, an organic or aqueous solvent is employed and a significant effort must be expended to recover the catalyst ...

Measurement and Modeling of Acridine Solubility in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide

Supercritical carbon dioxide has gained increasing attention in food and pharmaceutical processing owing to the fact that it is environmentally inexpensive, not flammable, essentially non-toxic, and it has a convenient critical point. Also, it has been attracting much attention in many fields, such as extraction of sensitive materials and pharmaceutical processing and polymerization processes. ...

One-pot synthesis of alcohols from olefins catalyzed by rhodium and ruthenium complexes

The one-pot synthesis of butanol and heptanol from propene and 1-hexene, respectively, was performed using Ru3(PPh3)Cl2 and Rh(CO)2(acac) in the presence of triphenylphosphene. The effects of various reaction parameters, including catalyst concentration, gas partial pressures, and temperature, were investigated. Two methods for performing the one-pot synthesis were developed and are discussed. ...

Measurement and Correlation of Ibuprofen in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Using Stryjek and Vera EOS

Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Extraction of Bioactive Compounds from Feijoa (Feijoa sellowiana) Leaves

Background and Objectives: Supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) technique has been studied for extraction of bioactive compounds from Feijoa sellowiana leaves. Results were compared with those obtained from conventional ethanolic extraction (CE). Materials and Methods: Results: The best supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) extraction conditions was determined as 250 bar of pressure, 50 &deg...
