Abstract

a -Hydroxy fatty acid esters are manufactured by reacting a ketone cyanhydrin with sulphuric acid at a raised temperature not exceeding about 100 DEG C., esterifying the product by heating with an alcohol, and distilling the reaction product with the addition, either before or during the early stages of the distillation, of an anhydrous alkali metal sulphate or bisulphate or ammonium sulphate. The proportion of sulphuric acid should preferably be between 1 and 1,3 moles per mole of cyanhydrin, in which case about 25--30 per cent, on the weight of acid, of sodium sulphate should be added. The products may be employed for the manufacture of the corresponding unsaturated esters. In examples: (1) sulphuric acid is added to crude acetone cyanhydrin with stirring and cooling to 75 DEG C., after which methyl alcohol and a little hydroquinone are added and the mixture is warmed on a water bath and then distilled after adding anhydrous sodium sulphate, the distillate being fractionated to yield methyl a -hydroxyisobutyrate together with methyl methacrylate; (2) acetone cyanhydrin is added to sulphuric acid with stirring and cooling to 80 DEG C., the rest of the procedure being similar to that of (1). Specifications 405,699 and 410,208 are referred to.
