Ethylene glycol (EG) produced from biomass is a promising candidate for several new applications. In this paper, EG derivatives such as mono- and di-tert-butyl ethers are considered. However, accurate thermodynamic data essential to optimise the technology of direct tert-butyl ether synthesis reaction or reverse process isobutene release. The aim work measure vapour pressures combustion energie...

Isoprenol (3-methyl-3-buten-1-ol) is an important intermediate in the chemical industry and used, for example, production of various scent flavor chemicals. produced from aqueous formaldehyde isobutene separated by distillation mixtures containing formaldehyde, water, process. As forms oligomers with both water isoprenol, these are complex reacting systems, which not easy to separate. Hence, un...

The reaction Cl + isobutene (i-C4H8) was reported by Suits et al. to proceed via, in addition to abstraction, an addition-elimination path following a roaming excursion of Cl; a near-zero translational energy release and an isotropic angular distribution observed at a small collision energy characterized this mechanism. We employed a new experimental method to further characterize this roaming ...
