CATALYST AND PROCESS FOR PRODUCING ALDEHYDES AND/OR ALCOHOLS

摘要

A catalyst includes molybdenum, palladium, and an iron oxide, for producing at least one of an aldehyde and an alcohol from a carboxylic acid via hydrogenation. The catalyst preferably contains 0.1 to 40 parts by weight of molybdenum and 1 to 50 parts by weight of palladium per 100 parts by weight of the iron oxide. The catalyst is preferably obtained by preparing a dispersion or solution containing a molybdenum component, a palladium component, and an iron component, drying the dispersion or solution to give a solid, and firing the solid.
