Use of an allylchloride for preparing an aldehyde.

摘要

The present invention relates to the use of an allylchloride of the general formula <CHEM> wherein R is a C1-C12 alkyl group or a C2-C12 alkenyl group, which groups may be substituted with one or more substituents selected from the group consisting of C1-C4 alkoxy, halogen, unsubstituted phenyl and substituted phenyl; a (trihydrocarbyl)silyl group; a (dihydrocarbyl)(hydrocarbyloxy)silyl group; or a dihydropyran-2-yl group, a tetrahydropyran-2-yl group, a dihydrofur-2-yl group or a tetrahydrofur-2-yl group, which groups may be substituted with C1-C6 alkyl; for preparing an aldehyde compound via an intermediate alcohol compound. The invention further relates to a new allylchloride.
