Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Process for preparing divinyl ethers by reacting compounds having two hydroxyl groups (hereinafter referred to as diols) with acetylene, wherein the hydroxyl groups are incompletely reacted with acetylene and the resulting product mixture therefore comprises the monovinyl ether in addition to the divinyl ether and the monovinyl ether is separated off from the product mixture by extractive distillation in the presence of an extractant.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A process for preparing a divinyl ether, comprising: reacting a diol having two hydroxyl groups with acetylene, wherein the hydroxyl groups are incompletely reacted with acetylene and a resulting product mixture comprises monovinyl ether and divinyl ether; and separating off the monovinyl ether from the product mixture by extractive distillation in the presence of an extractant, wherein the product mixture comprises from 60 to 95% by weight of divi…
