A method for producing an epoxy compound by reacting a compound having a carbon-carbon double bond with hydrogen peroxide in the coexistence of the compound having a carbon-carbon double bond, aqueous hydrogen peroxide, a powder of a solid catalyst support and a powder of a solid catalyst, wherein the solid catalyst comprises an isopolyacid, and the isopolyacid is produced from a catalyst raw material comprising (a) tungstic acid or a salt thereof and (b) at least one selected from the group consisting of a salt of an alkaline earth metal and a cationic polymer.

Production method for epoxy compound using solid catalyst

The present invention provides a method for producing an epoxy compound by expoxidation of an olefin compound with good productivity wherein a compound having a carbon-carbon double bond is reacted with hydrogen peroxide in the coexistence of (a) a compound having a carbon-carbon double bond, (b) a hydrogen peroxide solution, (c) a powdered solid catalyst support and (d) a powdered catalyst and optionally (e) an organic solvent, the total mass of (c) and (d) being 100 percent by mass or less on the basis of the total mass of (a), (b) and (e).

Method for producing epoxy compound

In order to produce an epoxy compound with a less chlorine content at a higher reaction rate and yield, the present invention provides a method for producing an epoxy compound by reacting a compound having a carbon-carbon double bond with hydrogen peroxide in the coexistence of the compound having a carbon-carbon double bond, the hydrogen peroxide solution, a powdered solid catalyst support and a powdered solid catalyst all together, the solid catalyst comprising isopolyacids produced from (a) tungstic acid or a salt thereof and (b) a quaternary ammonium salt compound and/or a pyridinium salt, selected from halogen-free compounds.

The present invention provides a method for producing an alicyclic diepoxy compound at a higher yield by carrying out epoxidation of an alicyclic olefin compound at a higher reaction rate. The method is a method for producing an alicyclic diepoxy compound represented by formula (1) below by reacting an alicyclic olefin compound represented by formula (2) below with hydrogen peroxide in the coexistence of the alicyclic olefin compound represented by formula (2) below, a hydrogen peroxide solution, a powdered solid catalyst support and a powdered solid catalyst all together: wherein Rto Rare each hydrogen, halogen, an alkyl group optionally having halogen or an alkoxy group optionally having a substituent.

Method for producing alicyclic diepoxy compound

A method is provided for carrying out epoxidation of an olefin compound with good productivity. The method produces an epoxy compound by reacting a compound having a carbon-carbon double bond with hydrogen peroxide by carrying out repeatedly or continuously the following steps: (1) reacting a compound having a carbon-carbon double bond with hydrogen peroxide in the coexistence of (a) the compound having a carbon-carbon double bond, (b) a hydrogen peroxide solution, (c) a powdered solid catalyst support, and (d) a powdered solid catalyst, and optionally further (e) an organic solvent to produce an epoxy compound; (2) separating the epoxy compound reaction product from the reaction mixture produced in (1); and (3) adding (d) and also adding (a), (b), (c), and optionally further (e) to the mixture of the powdered solid catalyst support and powdered solid catalyst after separating the reaction product in (2).

The oxygen absorber of the present invention contains gallic acid and a transition metal compound; in addition, it may contain an alkali carbonate whereby the oxygen absorbent provides safety and the same oxygen absorption capability as the oxygen absorber using iron powder.
