Ethyl-Ethylene Alkylation
Product: Ethylbenzene which can be
converted to Styrene
Benzene-Propelyne Alkylation (Friedel-Craft
Alkylation)
Product: Cumene which is where phenol
and acetone is derived
Alkylation of Lead
Product(s): Tetraethy and Tertramethyl
Lead
Cumene
- is an isopropyl benzene
Catalyst for production - Phosporic acid
derivatives, Aluminum Chloride, Sulfuric acid
Condition(s):
Temperature : 250oC
Pressure : 700 kPa
Uses: is used to manufacture other chemicals
such as phenol, acetone, acetophenone, and
methyl styrene. It is used as a thinner in paints,
lacquers, and enamels. It is a component of
high octane motor fuels
ETHYLBENZENE
-Vinyl Acetate- manufacture by reeacting Ethylene with Acetic Acid in the vapor phase
By product : CO2
Reaction Condition (s)
Temperature: 175 to 2000C
Pressure: 475 to 1000 kPa
- An older process reacts acetylene with acetic acid in the liquid phase but now vinyl
acetate is produced from ethylene
Chloroprene
-is a chlorovinyl ester of hydrochloric acid and is
prepared by polymerization of acetylene to vinyl
acetate using weak solutions of NH4Cl,CuCl2 KCl as
catalyst
- aqueous solution of HCl at 350C to 450C then reacted
with vinyl acetate in the presence of CuCl2 to form
Chloroprene
Ethylene Dichloride
Raw material: olefins(such as Ethylene)
Product: Ethylene chloride
Reaction yield :96%
Catalyst: Ethylene Bromine Vapor
Temperature: 400C to 500C
Ethylene Dichloride: is used in making
ethylenediamine and thiokol rubber.
Perchloroethylene: used for textile cleaning and
vapor degreasing
Reaction: follow the chlorination of Methyl
Trichloroethane:use for vapor and cold
degreasing , adhesives,aerosols electronics
