• p-Xylene intermediacy - 4 routes • No p-xylene intermediacy – 6 routes• No p-xylene/Amoco MidCentury – 2 routes• No p-xylene/no Amoco MidCentury/esterification/hydrolysis – 2 routes
Alder Reaction Sequence
Alder, K.; Dortmann, H. A. Chem. Ber. 1952, 85, 556-565.
• No esterification followed by ester hydrolysis• Solvent-free cycloaddition reaction• Enables access to both terephthalic acid and isophthalic acid
Cahiez, G.; Rivas-Enterrios, J.; Clery, P. Tetrahedron Lett. 1988, 29, 3659-3662.
Aromatization: solvent-free, vapor-phase, high mass balance
Oxidation: 0.5 mol% catalyst, highly selective
Enabling: Synthesis of both terephthalic and isophthalic acid

• 95% probability of 9.5-13 billion people by 2100.
• Annually, the U.S. will turn 5 billion bushels of corn into ethanol, which is enough food to feed 412 million people for an entire year.

• In 2013, the U.S. produced 0.69 x 1012 m3 of methane.• In 2013, the U.S. consumed 0.72 x1012 m3 of methane. • In 2014, the U.S. had 10 x 1012 m3 of proven methane reserves.• In 2014, the U.S. had 81 x 1012 m3 of estimated methane reserves.• The U.S. has 1,500 x 1012 m3 of estimated methane hydrate reserves. • In 2013, first marine extraction of methane hydrate (Nankai Trough).
• In 2013, U.S. biogas production was 0.012 x 1012 m3 annually.• Near-term, U.S. biogas production could reach 0.060 x 1012 m3 annually.• U.S. chemical industry consumes 0.046 x1012 m3 of methane.• Methane (wt/wt) has a 25-fold greater impact relative to CO2 on climate
change over a 100-year period.
