The invention relates to a method for producing alcohols by homogeneously catalysed hydroformylation of olefins to aldehydes and subsequent hydration of the aldehydes. The invention further relates to a system for carrying out the method. The main focus is on the separation technique for work-up of the hydroformylation mixture. The problem addressed by the invention is that specifying a work-up method for hydroformylation mixtures that utilises the specific advantages of known separation technologies but at the same time largely avoids the specific disadvantages of said separation technologies. The most important objective is to create a catalyst separation system that is as complete and at the same time conservative as possible and that operates in a technically reliable manner and entails low investment and operating costs. The method should be unrestrictedly suitable for processing the reaction output from oxo systems in “world scale” format. The problem is solved by combining membrane separation units and a thermal separation unit, the thermal separation unit being operated in such a manner that 80% to 98% of the mass introduced with the product stream into the thermal separation unit exits the thermal separation unit again as a head product. 1.

A method of producing 1,5-pentanedial having an alkyl group at the 3-position, including a step of hydroformylating an aldehyde compound represented by the following general formula (1): 2. The production method according to claim 1 , wherein the hydroformylating step is performed in the presence of a Groups 8 to 10 metal compound and a ligand.3. The production method according to claim 2 , wherein the Groups 8 to 10 metal compound is a rhodium compound. The present invention relates to a method of producing a dialdehyde compound. Specifically, the present invention relates to a method of producing 1,5-pentanedial having an alkyl group at the 3-position.Various compounds have been known as 1,5-pentanedial having an alkyl group at the 3-position. For example, 3-methylglutaraldehyde (3-methyl-1,5-pentanedial, which is hereinafter abbreviated as MGL) is a compound that is useful as a curing agent for a photosensitive material, a leather tanning agent, and a synthetic intermediate (see, for example, PTLs 1 to 3). The known production methods of MGL include a method of hydrolyzing pyranyl ether obtained through Diels-Alder reaction of crotonaldehyde and methyl vinyl ether (see NPLs 1 and 2).The aforementioned ordinary method has room for improvement since the Diels-Alder reaction of crotonaldehyde and methyl vinyl ether has low reactivity and requires severe conditions including a high temperature and a high pressure, the productivity thereof is insufficient due to the prolonged reaction time, and the yield of MGL is low. Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a method of producing 1,5-pentanedial having an alkyl group at the 3-position, such as MGL, under mild conditions with a good yield.The present invention relates to the following items [1] to [4].[1] A method of producing a dialdehyde compound represented by the following general formula (2) (which is hereinafter referred to as a dialdehyde compound (2)):wherein Rrepresents an alkyl group ...

A process for recovering methacrolein and methanol from methacrolein dimethyl acetal. The method comprises a step of contacting a mixture comprising methyl methacrylate and methacrolein dimethyl acetal with a strong acid ion exchange resin in the presence of water. The mixture comprises no more than 0.2 wt % sodium methacrylate. 1. A process for recovering methacrolein and methanol from methacrolein dimethyl acetal; said method comprising contacting a mixture comprising methyl methacrylate and methacrolein dimethyl acetal with a strong acid ion exchange resin in the presence of water; wherein said mixture comprises no more than 0.2 wt % sodium methacrylate.2. The process of wherein the strong acid ion exchange resin is a macroreticular resin.3. The process of wherein the strong acid ion exchange resin is in the form of beads having a harmonic mean size from 100 to 1200 microns.4. The process of wherein the strong acid ion exchange resin is contained in a fluid or fixed bed in a continuous reactor.5. The process of wherein the strong acid ion exchange resin has an average pore diameter from 20 to 600 Å.6. The process of wherein said mixture comprises no more than 0.1 wt % sodium methacrylate. The invention relates to a process for recovery of methacrolein and methanol from methacrolein dimethylacetal, a reaction product from preparation of methyl methacrylate.A significant process yield loss in preparation of methyl methacrylate (MMA) is formation of methacrolein dimethyl acetal (MDA) as a result of a side reaction of the key intermediate methacrolein (MA) with methanol. Conventionally, this is done by hydrolyzing MDA in the presence of a mineral acid, which is undesirable due to possible corrosion and the increased process complexity due to neutralization, catalyst disposal, and wastewater treatment requirements. Hydrolysis of acetals in the presence of ion exchange resins having sulfonic acid functionality is known, see, e.g., Coppola, G. M. 1984, 1021. However, ...

The present invention generally relates to biochemical and chemical industry, and more particularly to a method which can be used in fermenting carbohydrate substrates of plant origin for producing C-Calcohols, and for synthesis of higher alcohols, other oxygen-containing compounds and hydrocarbons as well as for the production of motor fuel components from biomass. Since Cand higher alcohols, ethers, acetals, and higher hydrocarbons are not obtainable by a direct biochemical route, it is proposed to synthesize these using known chemical reactions, wherein by-products of fermentation are as raw materials for said synthesis. 155.-.
