Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé de préparation de sels alcalins ou alcalino-terreux d'un acide carboxylique éthyléniquement insaturé en α-β. Dans ce procédé, a) on fait réagir un alcène, du dioxyde de carbone et un catalyseur de carboxylation pour donner un produit d'addition alcène/dioxyde de carbone/catalyseur de carboxylation ; b) on décompose le produit d'addition avec une base auxiliaire moyennant libération du catalyseur de carboxylation pour donner le sel de l'acide carboxylique éthyléniquement insaturé en α-β avec la base auxiliaire ; c) on fait réagir le sel de l'acide carboxylique éthyléniquement insaturé en α-β et de la base auxiliaire avec une base alcaline ou alcalinoterreuse moyennant libération de la base auxiliaire pour donner le sel de l'acide carboxylique éthyléniquement insaturé en α-β et de ladite base alcaline ou alcalinoterreuse. Les sels d'acides carboxyliques éthyléniquement insaturés en α-β, comme en particulier l'acrylate de sodium, sont requis en grandes quantités, par exemple pour la préparation de résines absorbant l'eau.
