Zusammenfassung: | An improved method for the preparation of a naphthalene dicarboxylic acid by liquid-phase catalytic oxidation of a diisopropylnaphthalene in a lower fatty acid-based solvent is disclosed wherein a catalyst system comprising bromine and the heavy metals cerium, cobalt, and manganese is used. The cerium compound used as a cerium source for the catalyst can be recovered from crystals of the naphthalene dicarboxylic acid product by dissolving the crystals in an alkali solution and separating the cerium compound as insolubles from the solution. |
