Abstract
Abstract A liquid phase containing butadiene and/or isoprene and acetylenic impurities is contacted with hydrogen, in the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst containing at least one non-noble metal from any of groups IVA to VIIA or VIII, the liquid phase also containing cyclopentadiene and the temperature being lower than 80*C.
