摘要:
A two-stage process for producing 1,3-propanediol by first hydrogenating at a temperature of 30° C. to 80° C. in the presence of an oxide-supported metal hydrogenation catalyst. Second, the resulting reaction solution is hydrogenated at a temperature of 80° C. to 180° C. to a 3-hydroxypropanal conversion of substantially 100% in the presence of an activated carbon-supported metal hydrogenation catalyst.

The present invention provides an improved process for the hydrogenation of 3-hydroxypropanal to 1,3-propanediol which comprises purifying an aqueous solution of 3-hydroxypropanal by contacting said aqueous solution with a purifying agent prior to hydrogenation.
摘要:
A process for the production of primary and/or secondary amines from imines or nitriles, comprising an aminating hydrogenation of imine or of nitrile with hydrogen in the presence of ammonia, of a hydrogenation catalyst based on cobalt, nickel, ruthenium or mixtures of these metals and of a base, at a temperature within the range of 50.degree. C. to 200.degree. C. and at a pressure within the range of 0.3 to 30 MPa. The yield of amine is increased by the use of a quaternary ammonium hydroxide as base. Preferably a tetraalkylammonium hydroxide is used in a quantity of from 0.01 to 100 mMol per mol of amine or of nitrile. The process is suitable in particular for the production of isophoronediamine from isophorone nitrile imine.

3-Hydroxypropanal is prepared by reacting acrolein with water under pressure and in the presence of an ion exchange resin while adding a carboxylic acid to the reaction mixture.
摘要:
The invention relates to a process for increasing the selectivity of the hydrogenation of 4,4′-diaminodiphenylmethane (4,4′-MDA) to diaminodicyclohexylmethane (4,4′-HMDA) by catalytic hydrogenation of a mixture containing 4,4′-MDA as the main component and its mono-N-methyl derivative as a secondary component. According to the invention, the hydrogenation is terminated before a conversion of 4,4′-MDA to 4,4′-HMDA of 99% is achieved. Under these conditions, a substantially smaller proportion of the N-methyl-4,4′-MDA is hydrogenated to N-methyl-4,4-HMDA.

摘要:
Carrier-bound ruthenium catalysts are used to produce alcohols by the catalytic hydrogenation of aldehydes and ketones. The problem of deactivation of the catalyst is solved by the use of a ruthenium catalyst on an oxide carrier of the series TiO2, SiO2, ZrO2, MgO, mixed oxides thereof and silicates thereof. In particular, Ru on TiO2 or SiO2 results in a long service life of the catalyst.

&bgr;-Hydroxyaldehydes are produced by a method in which 1,2-oxiranes are reacted with carbon monoxide and hydrogen in the presence of transitional metal compounds which are modified with phosphorus-oxygen ligands or nitrogen-oxygen ligands and which act as a catalyst.
摘要:
A process for recovering methanol from mixtures containing methanol and water, comprising multistage evaporation with heat integration, wherein the pressure is reduced from each stage to the next, and a downstream series of distillation stages with heat integration, wherein the pressure is increased from each stage to the next. The process reduces the amount of energy required for methanol recovery.
