Appl. No.:

13/571180

Inventors:

Marc Packles - New York NY, US
Joseph Halpern - New York NY, US

International Classification:

G06Q 40/06

US Classification:

705 36 R

Abstract:

A computerized method and system is disclosed for creating custom structured financial products as well as standardized exchange traded structured financial products.

Abstract:

Esters of the formula ##STR1## wherein X is chlorine or bromine and B is a benzyl group of the formula ##STR2## where Y and Z may be the same or different and are selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, halogen, lower alkyl, lowr alkoxy, phenyl, phenoxy, lower alkyl phenyl, lower alkyl phenoxy, halophenyl and halophenoxy, are prepared by transesterification between BOH and a compound of the formula ##STR3## wherein L is a lower alkyl radical of between 1 and 4 carbon atoms, using as catalyst an organometallic compound selected from (RO). sub. 4 Ti and R'. sub. 2 SnO, where R and R' are alkyl radicals of between 1 and 6 carbon atoms. Useful organometallic catalysts include tetrabutyl titanate, tetraisopropyl titanate, and dibutyl tin(IV)oxide. About 1% by weight of the total charge of reactants is catalyst. The process is conducted at 100. degree. -200. degree. C.
