Abstract
Disclosed is a process for preparation of a stream which is both selectively high in 2,6-diiodonaphthalene and also contains substantial quantities of diiodonaphthalene. First, naphthalene is oxyiodinated in the presence of a zeolite catalyst to produce a stream which is selectively high in 2-monoiodonaphthalene and the 2-monoiodonaphthalene is separated from the stream to produce a stream which is both selectively high in 2-monoiodonaphthalene and contains substantial quantities of 2-monoiodonaphthalene. Second, this stream is then oxyiodinated in the presence of a zeolite catalyst to produce a stream which is selectively high in 2,6-diiodonaphthalene and then 2,6-diiodonaphthalene is separated from the stream to produce the stream which is both selectively high in 2,6-diiodonaphthalene and contains substantial quantities of 2,6-diiodonaphthalene.
