A mixture of saturated alcohols of which the major proportion consists of alcohols having 10 to 20 carbon atoms are obtained by the telomerization of ethylene with saturated aliphatic alcohols containing 1 to 6 carbon atoms in the presence of an alkyl halide optionally in the presence of a metal and/or a free-radical initiator such as di-ter-butyl peroxide. Specified aliphatic alcohols are methanol, ethanol, iso-propanol and iso-butanol. The telomerization of ethylene with methanol in the presence of magnesium, tin or cobalt metals is exemplified while zinc, lead, copper, chromium, molybdenum, manganese, iron or nickel may also be used. The reaction is carried out in an autoclave at a temperature of 80-120 DEG C. under 20-50 atmospheres and the constitution of the mixture of alcohols obtained is given.
