Alkylation

Abstract

Alkylation is classified this year entirely under the bonding-i.e., carbon to carbon, carbon to oxygen, carbon to nitrogen, carbon to sulfur, carbon to silicon, and carbon to metal. Supplementing this classification, some of the references are arranged under dealkylation. Under these subheads, there are various catalyst divisions. As was true last year, there has been found increasing study of alkylation involving carbon to sulfur, carbon to silicon, and carbon to various metals. Also in this past year patents continue to be a very important part of the compilation.
