Reaktivit�t und Selektivit�t bei der Oxidation von Styrolderivaten, II. Untersuchungen zur Oxidation vonp-substituierten ?-Methylstyrolen
摘要:
The liquid phase oxidation of p-substituted (Br-, Cl-, t-Bu-, MeO-, CF3-) alpha-methylstyrenes and of alpha,p-dimethoxystyrene with pure oxygen was investigated in chlorobenzene solution and in presence of cumene and of cumene hydroperoxide in the temperature range 65-125 degrees C. The product yields were determined gaschromatographically. The differences of the activation energies of the epoxide formation and the parallel reactions amount to 19-48 kJ/mol. The epoxide selectivity increases with increasing temperature and concentration of olefine. The relative chain propagation constants k(p) (C=C) Were determined by competitive oxidation with cumene. The k(p)(C=C) values of p-substituted alpha-methylstyrenes can be correlated by the Hammett equation with both sigma and sigma(+) substituent constants.
