Abstract

Acrylic acid is made by oxidizing acrolein with molecular oxygen in the presence of an acidic compound of vanadium at a temperature not above 45 DEG C. and, if desired, in the presence of a water-miscible solvent such as acetic acid, acrylic acid, or acetone. The recovery of the product from the reaction mixture may be effected without polymerization by adding a substance which will decompose the peroxide compounds present such as sulphur dioxide. The oxidation may be effected under conditions which prevent saponification during the process and recovery stages in which case acrylic anhydride is obtained. The acrylic acid in the reaction product may be esterified with acetylene or an alcohol, or an alcohol may be added initially so that esterification occurs during the oxidation. Examples are given. The Provisional Specification includes the oxidation of alpha substituted acrolein such as methylacrolein and chloracrolein, and mentions other catalysts including compounds, preferably acidic compounds, of chromium, tungsten, molybdenum, osmium and uranium and polyacids of such metals such as phosphotungstic and phosphomolybdic acids.
