METHOD FOR PRODUCING COMPOUND CONTAINING HYDROXYL GROUP

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for producing a compound containing a hydroxyl group by hydrating a compound having an aliphatic double bond with water that does not require a catalyst recovery step, a catalyst neutralization step, catalyst regeneration, catalyst exchange or the like. SOLUTION: The method for producing the compound containing the hydroxyl group by hydrating the compound having the aliphatic double bond with water at a reaction temperature of 200 to 600 deg.C and a reaction pressure of 1 to 100 MPa without any catalyst, is provided.
