| abstract |
The invention concerns a method for preparing (meth)acrylic esters or anhydrides from acrylic acid of formulae (I), where R is H or Me, and R′ is alkyl and R″ is alkyl or ethyl substituted by dialkylamino whereof the alkyls can form with the nitrogen atom, a 5- or 6-membered heterocycle, capable of bearing one or several alkyl substituents. OII or ═O, or R′ is H and R″ is alkyl, the alcohol R″—OH being primary or secondary; or (II) wherein R′ is H or Me, functioning preferably in the presence of at least one catalyst, wherein is performed a reaction in a reaction R 2 with constant equilibrium displacement provided with a first reactor R 1 designed for prior dehydration of the reagents to be involved in the reaction. |
