Abstract
Oxygenated compounds are prepared by reacting olefinically unsaturated compounds with carbon monoxide and hydrogen in the presence of a hydroformylation catalyst with suppression of the olefin hydrogenation side reaction if an acid is used in the reaction mixture. Typically, o-phthalic acid suppresses the formation of hexane and n-propanol, respectively, when 1-hexene and allyl alcohol are hydroformylated.
