.~ By alkyl transfer, e.g., disproportionation, etc.
DEFINITION
Classification: 585/708
By alkyl transfer, e.g., disproportionation, etc.:
(under subclass 700) Subject matter in which an alkyl moiety of a molecule is transferred to another molecule.
(1) Note. Patents are classified herein on the basis of the net result of the process, regardless of the mechanism involved, that is, the process may proceed by dimerization and cracking, as well as by free-radical transfer.
SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:
257, 433, 440, 616, and 656, for disproportionation reactions involving the transfer of hydrogen between hydrocarbon molecules or hydrocarbyl moieties.
470+, and 643+, for alkyl or alkenyl transfer processes resulting in aromatic and insaturated products, respectively.
