METHOD FOR PREPARING LACTONES HAVING AT LEAST ONE GROUP SELECTED FROM CARBOXYL, CARBOALKOXY, HYDROXY AND CARBOXYLATE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18555301 titled 'METHOD FOR PREPARING LACTONES HAVING AT LEAST ONE GROUP SELECTED FROM CARBOXYL, CARBOALKOXY, HYDROXY AND CARBOXYLATE
The abstract describes a method for preparing a product containing lactones with specific functional groups, using aliphatic tricarboxylic acids and a heterogeneous hydrogenation catalyst.
- The method involves selecting lactones with carboxyl, carboalkoxy, hydroxy, or carboxylate groups.
- Aliphatic tricarboxylic acids, their esters, anhydrides, or salts are used as starting compounds for producing the desired product compounds.
- A heterogeneous hydrogenation catalyst is employed in the preparation process.
- The innovation focuses on the synthesis of specific product compounds with targeted functional groups.
- This method offers a controlled and efficient way to produce desired lactone compounds for various applications.
