The invention relates to a method for oxidizing primary alcohols in order to obtain aldehydes and/or carboxylic acids. The reaction takes place in the presence of a catalyst supported on aluminium oxides or aluminium silicates and containing palladium, platinum, cobalt, rhodium, ruthenium, iridium, rhenium, optionally with co-catalysts.

Method of producing aldehydes and carboxylic acids by oxidizing primary alcohols

There is provided a process for producing Guerbet alcohols not containing any heavy metals or soaps, wherein primary and/or secondary alcohols having 2 to 30 carbon atoms are condensed at elevated temperature in the presence of alkaline catalysts and/or heavy metal catalysts while eliminating the reaction water, and the reaction product is immediately separated by distillation without any additional purification.

Method for producing metal-free Guerbet alcohols

The invention relates to esters of certain benzene polycarboxylic acids with 2-alkylalcohols, and their use as hydraulic fluid, as or in lubricant formulations or as an additive in cosmetics.

Esters of aromatic polycarboxylic acids with 2-alkylalkan-1-ols

A process for the continuous production of monocarboxylic acids from the corresponding alcohols by alkali fusion wherein the oxidation is continuously accomplished in an extrusion reactor without addition of diluents and the alkali salts of the monocarboxylic acids are discharged from the reactor as a solid product and are directly neutralised with mineral acids. High-purity monocarboxylic acids are obtained after phase separation.
