Comparison Examples 29 to 34Glycolysis of Dimethyl Terephthalate (DMT) at Ambient Temperature with DBU and TBDMaterials. DMT and Amberlyst-15 was purchased from Sigma-Aldrich and used as received.To a 5 ml sample tube containing DMT (0.48 g, 2.5 mmol) was charged predetermined amounts of EG and a catalyst (DBU or TBD, 0.125 mmol, 0.05 eq.). Three levels of EG were used with each catalyst: 2.84 molar equivalents, 8 molar equivalents, and 16 molar equivalents of EG relative to moles of DMT. After the mixture was stirred for 24 hours, THF (8 mL) and Amberlyst-15 (150 mg) were added to the mixture to quench the reaction and allow the slurry to become homogeneous. Aliquots of the solution were taken for ¹H NMR and GPC analysis in order to evaluate the conversion and content. FIG. 12 shows a typical GPC curve of the crude product. Peak labeled A corresponds to oligomers, peak labeled B corresponds to BHET, peak labeled C corresponds to 2-hydroxyethyl methyl terephthalate (HEMT), and peaks labeled D correspond to EG and DMT. HEMT is the intermediate in glycolysis of DMT and has the following structure:The GPC results are summarized in Table 6 below.
