Abstract
A process for the production of an ether alcohol is disclosed, which comprises subjecting a cyclic ketal to hydrogenolysis in the presence of a catalyst containing palladium in an amount of from 50 to 100% by weight, based on the total active catalytic component present. According to the inventive process, ether alcohols which are useful as perfumes or raw materials for perfumes can be produced easily with low cost and high yield.
