ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to the production of dialkyl disulphides of the R-SS-R type where R represents an alkyl radical having from 1 to 3 carbon atoms, by oxidation of the corresponding alkyl mercaptan R--SH by sulphur in the presence of a catalyst.
A combination of an alkyl mercantap R'--SH with an alkylene oxide and an alkaline base is used as catalyst, R' representing an alkyl radical having from 6 to 18 carbon atoms.
This catalyst enables a lower dialkyl disulphide of excellent quality to be obtained (absence of amine and coloration).
