Abstract
The invention relates to a process for obtaining a pure aliphatic dialdehyde monoacetal by reaction of the corresponding aliphatic dialdehyde or a precursor of the corresponding aliphatic dialdehyde with one or more aliphatic mono- or polyhydric alcohols while distillatively removing water to obtain a reaction mixture which is separated distillatively, which comprises carrying out the distillative separation continuously in a dividing wall column to obtain pure aliphatic dialdehyde monoacetal as a sidestream from the dividing wall column, or in two distillation columns to obtain crude aliphatic dialdehyde monoacetal as a sidestream in the first distillation column, feed the crude aliphatic dialdehyde monoacetal to the second distillation column and obtain pure aliphatic dialdehyde monoacetal as the sidestream from the second distillation column.
