Verfahren zur Oxydation aliphatischer Olefine

摘要

A process for the production of an alkylene chloro- or bromo-hydrin having 2-4 carbon atoms, which comprises oxidizing an aliphatic olefin having 2-4 carbon atoms by contract with a thallic salt in the presence of water, said process being characterized in that at least one type of ion selected from ions of chlorine and bromine is present in the reaction system in an amount such that the atomic ratio of the chlorine and/or bromine ions to thallium atom is at least 6:1.
