Abstract

Abstract A process for hydroformylating a cyclic acrolein acetal to form the corresponding cyclic acrolein acetal aldehyde, said process comprising conducting said hydroformylation in the presence of carbon monoxide, hydrogen, rhodium complex catalyst and 1-3%of excess triphenyl phosphite ligand based on the acetal at a pressure of carbon monoxide of from 5-20 psia and a pressure of hydrogen of from 10- 400 psia maintained with a gas having a H 2 :CO ratio of from 1:1-20:1 and a temperature of from 100-115°C, the rhodium content of said catalyst being 1-50 ppm of rhodium based on the acetal.

Claim 1
Independent Claim 115 words
The process of hydroformylating cyclic acrolein acetals of the general formulae or where R 1 and R 2 are selected from the group consisting of H and the same or different alkyl groups of 1-4 carbon atoms to the corresponding aldehydes in the presence of hydrogen, carbon monoxide, rhodium complex catalyst and organo-phosphorus ligand, characterized by the presence of 1-50 ppm of rhodium in the complex catalyst based on the cyclic acrolein acetal, a ratio of H 2 :CO of from 1:1-20:1, at 1-3% by weight based on the cyclic acrolein acetal of excess triphenyl phosphite ligand, a pressure such that the CO partial pressure is from 5-20 psia and a temperature of from 100-115°C.
