Under standard conditions the cross metathesis of allyl alcohols and methyl acrylate is accompanied by the formation of ketones, resulting from uncontrolled and undesired double bond isomerization. By conducting the CM in the presence of phenol, the catalyst loading and the reaction time required for quantiative conversion can be reduced, and isomerization can be suppressed. On the other hand, ...

High solids content film-forming poly[styrene-co-(n-butyl acrylate)] [poly(Sty-co-BuA)] latexes armored with Laponite clay platelets have been synthesized by soap-free emulsion copolymerization of styrene and n-butyl acrylate. The polymerizations were performed in batch in the presence of Laponite and a methyl ether acrylate-terminated poly(ethylene glycol) macromonomer in order to promote poly...

The alkoxycarbonylation of trimethylsilylacetylene has been studied in order to develop an atom economic sustainable synthesis 2‐(trimethylsilyl)acrylates, a family valuable intermediates. Pd(OAc) 2 combination with CH 3 SO H and diphenyl‐(pyridin‐2‐yl)phosphine or diphenyl‐(6‐methyl‐pyridin‐2‐yl)phosphine is active catalyst for the reaction affording mixtures sought 2‐(trimethylsilyl)acrylate ...
