Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
145 words
A process for producing C 3 -C 20 aliphatic alcohols by catalytically reacting carbon monoxide, hydrogen, and acetylene, all being dissolved in a liquid medium selected from the group consisting of a fraction of saturated aliphatic C 10 -C 18 alcohols a fraction of paraffin C 12 -C 20 hydrocarbons, and a mixture of both said fractions, said reagents being reacted on a catalyst containing 92 to 95% by weight of Fe 3 0 4 , 0.5 to 2% by weight of an alkaline promoter selected from the group consisting of K 2 O and Na 2 O, 3 to 7.5% by weight of structural promoters selected from the group of metal oxides consisting of V 2 O 5 , Al 2 0 3 , SiO 2 at a temperature ranging from 170° to 220° C under a pressure of from 20 to 200 atm.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
19 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein said liquid medium contains 10 to 50% by weight of N-methylpyrrolidone.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
34 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the synthesis is conducted under a pressure of from 50 to 150 atm and at a temperature within the range of from 190° to 200° C.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
48 words

Claim 6
Dependent Claim
26 words
