Fenpyroximate was prepared by Williamson synthesis of 4-hydroxyimino-5-phenoxypyrazole and t-butyl 4-bromomethyl benzoate, while an efficient method for the synthesis of t-butyl benzoate still remains a challenging problem. We have found that t-butyl benzoate could be prepared from benzoic acid by the sulfuric acid-catalyzed reaction with isobutene via in situ generation from t-butanol. It has been proven that this process is more convenient for the preparation of t-butyl 4-bromobenzoate, thus allows a facile entry to fenpyroximate.

Two-component polyurethane flame-retardant coatings were prepared by blending trichloro lactone modified polyesters (TAPTS) and isocyanate, Desmodur IL. Polycondensation reaction of trichlorobenzoic acid (TBA) as a flame-retardant component, and adipic acid with trimethylolpropane, polycaprolactone 0201, and 1,4-butanediol gave the corresponding TAPTs. The content of TBA was adjusted from 10 to 30 wt% in our experiment. It was found that various properties of these new flame-retardant coatings were comparable to other non-flame-retardant coatings. We also carried out three different tests for the measurement of flammability of flame -retardant coatings. The results of vertical burning test for the coatings containing more than 20 wt% of TBA were determined as 'no burn'. The results of flammability test for the coatings with 20 and 30 wt% of TBA contents indicated the limiting oxygen index (LOI) values of 25% and 27% respectively, which implied relatively good flame retardancy. They also showed the char length of 3.6-5.2 cm according to $45^{\circ}$ Meckel burner test, which can be classified as the first grade flame-retardant coatings.

Crystalline products were obtained when$TiCl_4$ was reacted in dichloromethane with acetic, propionic, crotonic, benzoic, furoic and salicylic acids. Chemical analysis has shown that these were all dichlorodicarboxylatotitanium (IV). Cryoscopy of dichlorodipropionatotitanium (IV) indicated the carboxylato-complexes are dimeric. In the IR spectra of these complexes two strong bands both assigned to asymmetric carbonyl stretching vibration have been observed in the region$1500 - 1700cm^{-1}$ and the NMR spectrum of dichlorodipropionatotitanium (IV) has also shown two triplets and two quartets, which indicate that there are two chemically unequivalent carboxylato-ligands in the dimer $[TiCl_2(OOCR)_2]_2$. Their molecular structure was proposed to be bis-carboxo-bridged dimer.
