Abstract
The effects of sonochemical treatment of a NaK eutectic mixture as catalyst on the side-chain alkenylation of o-xylene with 1,3-butadiene were studied. The parameters studied include ultrasound frequency, insonation time, sonication power as well as the reaction temperature. In addition, the effect of N, N, N′, N′-tetramethylethylenediamine (TMEDA) on the reaction was also studied. The results showed that sonochemical treatment of this NaK eutectic mixture catalyst resulted in excellent conversion (up to 83.16%) under mild conditions. The introduction of TMEDA further increased the conversion to 89.4%.
