Abstract: A 1-bromoalkylbenzene derivative is prepared by reacting a phenylalkene derivative with hydrogen bromide in the presence of a non-polar solvent. The phenylalkene derivative is prepared by reacting an alkenyl halide with metal magnesium to form a Grignard reagent, and then reacting the Grignard reagent with a benzyl halide derivative. An allyl Grignard reagent is prepared by reacting continuously an allyl halide derivative with metal magnesium in an organic solvent, in which the allyl halide derivative and metal magnesium are continuously added to the reaction system and the allyl Grignard reagent formed is continuously removed from the reaction system. The processes provide the intended compounds in high yields, high selectivities and high purities.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for bleaching pulp with a gaseous bleaching reagent. The pulp (18) is intensively mixed in the presence of the bleaching reagent within an upstream vessel comprising a fluffer/blower (12). Next, the pulp is agitated in the presence of the bleaching reagent within an intermediate vessel comprising an agitated mixer reactor (14).

The vessel has first and second cup-shaped tank liners having circular open mouths which are provided with a seal and diaphragm assembly. The seal assembly includes a pocket formed by an inner wall and shelf associated with the first liner and a ledge associated with the second liner. The shelf, ledge and cylindrical wall cooperate with an inner surface of the second liner to provide an O-ring pocket. An O-ring is provided in the pocket and the O-ring defines the periphery of a flexible diaphragm which divides the interior of the liners into separate pressure chambers. A continuous filament is wound over the surface of the liners in an isotensoid pattern. Each liner has a geodesic dome surface extending between a diameter of the liner and a polar opening. The dome surface is defined by oppositely curving surfaces of revolution of a meridia joined by an inflection point. The first surface of revolution curves from the liner diameter to a first point just unto but not at said inflection point. The second surface of revolution curves from the polar opening to a second point just unto but not at said inflection point in a direction opposite the curvature of the first surface of revolution. The first and second surfaces are joined, and the inflection point is traversed by a straight line third surface of revolution closely approximating geodesic curvature through the inflection point. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The method involves using an exchange system which can be constructed e.g. from four exchanges. Each exchange is organised in clusters with a number of control units for particular clusters, each of which consists of a number of access points to the system. The access points may serve as interfaces to different types of line e.g. analogue telephones (50), digital terminals and radio terminals by the use of radio access points. Each cluster possesses the sufficient resources for communication between its own access points. Each exchange also includes a transport loop, allowing inter-cluster exchange in order to support communication between several different access points on different clusters. The loops may include 40Mbits/sec digital lines, organised as channel circuits offering access between clusters.
