摘要:
A process for the separation by distillation of a mixture of 1,4-butanediol and at least one 4-hydroxybutyraldehyde, its cyclic hemiacetal and its cyclic full acetals with at least one further alcohol by carrying out the distillation in the presence of an alkaline compound. The mixture to be separated preferably contains a cyclic full acetal of 4-hydroxybutyraldehyde with a further alcohol which has a lower boiling point than butanediol and also the further alcohol in free form. The process is particularly suitable for the separation by distillation of mixtures formed in the hydrogenation of maleic acid derivatives.
