On July 1, Dow lifted tabs of liquid and solid epoxies by 6 cents to 8 cents/lb, while cycloaliphatic epoxides rose 20 cents/lb June 15. This procedure involved forming the epoxides from linoleic acid and then opening the epoxide ring to generate the vicinal diols. More specifically, the licensed technology provides a new, efficient catalytic reaction chemistry for the production of chiral epoxides, which are versatile reactive chemical building blocks or intermediates that can be converted into a variety of types of pharmaceutically active chiral compounds. |
