摘要:
Trimethylolpropane is prepared in such a manner that butyraldehyde is metered into a mixture of water, alkaline condensing agent and formaldehyde, which contains less than 0.1 mol of methanol relative to 1 mol of formaldehyde, at temperatures from 15.degree. to 50.degree. C., and after addition of the butyraldehyde the reaction mixture is heated up to 90.degree. C., sufficient water being present in the reaction mixture so that the reaction mixture has a content of trimethylolpropane of 5 to 25% by weight after the reaction.
摘要:
A process for the preparation of 2,2-dimethylolalkanals is disclosed wherein formaldehyde is reacted with an aldehyde of the formulaRCH.sub.2 CHO (I)whereinR denotes a straight-chain or branched alkyl radical with up to 12 carbon atoms where the radical can be substituted by an alkyl or alkoxy group with 1 to 3 carbon atoms in each case wherein the molar ratio of aldehyde of formula I to formaldehyde is 1:8 to 20, the reaction being carried out at a temperature in the range of 5.degree. to 100.degree. C. in the presence of 0.01 to 0.5 mol (per mol of aldehyde of formula (I)) of a catalyst consisting essentially of a hydroxide or carbonate of an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal or an unbranched tertiary aliphatic amine.
