68878-28 REACTOR CONFIGURATION FOR ALKYLENE OXIDE PRODUCTION PROCESS ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE The invention relates to a method of preparing an alkylene oxide compound comprising reacting an olefinically unsaturated compound in the presence of a molybdenum catalyst with an organic hydroperoxide in a series of continuous stirred tank reactors in more than one stage in which the mole of olefin to hydroperoxide at no point in any of said reactors exceeds 3.0:1 and maintaining more than 60 wt. % of polar components in the reaction medium in each of said reactors. Extremely low productions of olefin oligomers, the most troublesome by- products, can be achieved with this technique. Surprisingly, high alkylene oxide concentrations, selectivities and yields may also be achieved together with high hydroperoxide conversions and high molybdenum catalyst recoveries, all simultaneously.
