There are many methods of obtaining butadiene described in the literature. In the america it is produced largely from petroleum gases, i.e., by catalytic dehydrogenation of butene of butene-butane mixtures. Butadiene can be recovered from the $C_4$ residue of an olefin plant by distilling off a fraction containing most of the butadiene, catalytically hydrogenating the higher acetylenes to olefins and separating the product from other olefins and isobutane by extraction. Also it can be obtained by cracking naphtha and light oil. Among the individual dienes of commercial importance, 1, 3-butadiene is of first importance. It is used primarily for the production of polymers.In the present paper, it was investigated for a effect of the formation and the growth inhibition of popped corn polymer in butadiene extraction unit. As a result of study, inhibitors, $NaNO_2$ and TBC were good effective for inhibition of the formation and growth in popcorn polymer. The rational formula of popcorn polymer obtained was $(C_4H_6)_x$.

The cellulase components were partially purified from the culture filtrate of the alkalophilic bacterium Pseudomonas sp. AC-711 and its enzymatic properties were characterized. The specific activity of the purified major enzyme component was 3.5 units/mg protein as carboxymethyl cellulase and the yield was 23% of the total activity of the culture broth. The molecular weight of the component was 46,000 and the Km and Vmax on CMC were determined as $15.4mg\;mL^{-1}$ and $4.17{\mu}moles\;mL^{-1}\;min^{-1}$, respectively. The enzyme was stable at the temperatures below $60^{\circ}C$ and at the pH range of 4.0~11.0, and the optimal temperature and pH were $60^{\circ}C$ and pH 8.0, respectively. The enzyme activity was not significantly affected by the common surfactants (concentration: 0.05%) such as ${\alpha}$-olefin sulfonate, linear alkylbenzene sulfonate, sodium dodecyl sulfonate, hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide and Tween 80. The enzyme was activated by the metal ions such as $Ca^{2+}$, $Cu^{2+}$, $Co^{2+}$, whereas inhibited by $Hg^{2+}$ and $Zn^{2+}$. The enzyme exhibited relatively high activity toward amorphous CMC as compared with crystalline substrates such as filter paper and avicel.

p-(2-Vinyloxyethoxy)benzylidenemalononitrile (4a), methyl p-(2-vinyloxyethoxy)benzylidenecyanoacetate (4b), 3,5-dimethoxy-4-(2'-vinyloxyethoxy)benzylidenemalononitrile (5a), methyl 3,5-dimethoxy-4-(2'-vinyloxy-ethoxy) benzylidenecyanoacetate (5 b), o-(2 -vinyloxyethoxy)benzylidenemalononitrile (6a), methyl o-(2-viny-Ioxyethoxy) benzylidenecyanoacetate (6b), 1,3-di-(2',2'-dicyanovinyl)-5-methyl-2-(2'-vinyloxyetioxy)benzene (7a), l,3-di-(2'-carbomethoxy-2'-cyanovinyl)-5-methyl-2-(2'-vinyloxyethoxy)benzene (7b), 2,3,4-tri-(2'-viny-Ioxyethoxy) benzylidenemalononitrile (8a), methyl 2,3,4-tri-(2'-vinyloxyethoxy)benzylidenecyanoacetate (8b), 2,4,6-tri-(2'-vinyloxyethoxy)benzylidenemalononitrile (9a), and methyl 2,4,6-tri-(2'-vinyloxyethoxy)benzyl-idenecyanoacetate(9b) were prepared by the condensation of the corresponding benzaldehyde 1-3 with malononitrile or methyl cyanoacetate, respectively. Vinyl ether monomers 4, 6, and 8 polymerized readily with radical initiators to yield crosslinked polymers 10, 12, and 14. However, compounds 5, 7, and 9 were inert to radical initiators due to the steric hindrance. The resulting polymers 10, 12, and 14 were not soluble in common solvents showing a thermal stability up to $300^{\circ}C$.

Separation of ethylene from ethane and propylene from propane have been conducted using facilitated olefin transport membrane with SPEEK-Ag (Ag substituted sulfonated poly(ether ether ketone)). SPEEK was prepared by the sulfonation of PEEK using cone. $H_2SO_4$ and the reaction time affected the degree of sulfonation (DS) of the resulting SPEEK. SPEEK-Ag composite membrane was formed by soaking SPEEK in the polyester support into the Ag salt solution. With increasing the concentration of SPEEK in MeOH, the thickness of SPEEK on the polyester increased. The selectivity and the flux of SPEEK-Ag membrane for the separation of ethylene/ethane and propylene/propane were changed by the thickness of SPEEK layer on the top of polyester support. The anion of silver salt also affects the membrane performance.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the catalytic potential of the porous material prepared from water treatment sludge. The textural properties of the catalyst were studied using $N_2$ adsorption and desorption isotherms, scanning electron microscope, and X-ray diffraction. The pellet-type catalyst prepared using water treatment sludge is determined to be a material that contains mesopores as well as micropores. The specific surface area of the catalyst is $157m^2/g$. Acidic characteristics of the catalyst are analyzed by temperature-programmed desorption of ammonia and infrared spectroscopy of adsorbed pyridine. 2-Butanol dehydration reaction was carried out in a fixed bed catalytic reactor. Yields of 1-butene, trans-2-butene, and cis-2-butene at $350^{\circ}C$ were 25.6 wt%, 19.2 wt%, and 29.9 wt%, respectively. This catalytic activity of the catalyst based on water treatment sludge in 2-butanol dehydration is due to the acid sites composed of Bronsted acid sites and Lewis acid sites. It was confirmed that the catalyst based on water treatment sludge can be utilized to produce $C_4$ olefin through butanol dehydration.

There is not much method of using C4 Raffinate III, despite having high olefin contents. The majority of the C4 Raffinate III have been converted into n-butane through hydrogenation, and sold as LPG. The C4 Raffinate III is rich 2-butenes with very low isobutene and isobutene contents. The 2-butenes are converted into 1-butene in the vicinity of thermodynamic equilibrium yield through positional isomerization with n-almumina catalyst calcinated at $400{\sim}600^{\circ}C$. The overall process is composed of isomerization-reactor, de-1-buteneizer to prepare the reactants and to enrich reactive products, and 1-butene column to product a high purity 1-butene. The production of 1-butene increases by 40~60 wt% with the selective positional isomerization from the existing separation method.

The reaction of aryl iodides or bromides with olefins in the presence of 1 mol % of $PdCl_2(PPh_3)_2$ and 3 equiv. of $n-Bu_3N\; at\; 100^{\circ}C$ in carbon monoxide atmosphere gave the corresponding aryl vinyl ketones in good yields with small amount of vinylated 1-aryl olefins. But, when the reaction was proceeded under the 10 atm of carbon monoxide, aryl vinyl ${\alpha}$-diketones and aryl vinyl ketones were obtained in moderate to good yields. The reaction was tolerant of a wide variety of functional groups on either the aryl halides or olefin compounds. Reactivity of aryl halide decrease in the order; aryl iodide > aryl bromide ${\gg}$aryl chloride. In general, the reaction proceeded well and gave good yields of aryl vinyl ketones and aryl vinyl ${\alpha}$-diketones when reactants are substituted with electron withdrawing groups.

Kinetic studies of the additions of benzylamines to a noncyclic dicarbonyl group activated olefin, methyl $\alpha$-acetyl-$\beta$ -phenylacrylates (MAP), in acetonitrile at 30.0 ${^{\circ}C}$ are reported. The rates are lower than those for the cyclic dicarbonyl group activated olefins. The addition occurs in a single step with concurrent formation of the $C_\alpha$ -N and $C_\beta$ -H bonds through a four-center hydrogen bonded transition state. The kinetic isotope effects ($k_H/k_D$ > 1.0) measured with deuterated benzylamines ($XC_6H_4CH_2ND_2$) increase with a stronger electron acceptor substituent ($\delta\sigma$ X > 0) which is the same trend as those found for other dicarbonyl group activated series (1-4). The sign and magnitude of the cross-interaction constant, ρXY, is comparable to those for the normal bond formation processes in the $S_N2$ and addition reactions. The relatively low ${\Delta}H^\neq$ and large negative ${\Delta}S^\neq$ values are also consistent with the mechanism proposed.
