Process for the preparation of tertiary alcohols by the hydration of tertiary olefins in a reactive rectification using a structured multi-purpose packing

摘要

Tertiary alcohols can be prepared by the hydration of tertiary olefins having the same number of carbon atoms on an acidic ion exchanger using special structured multi-purpose packings for heterogeneous reactive rectification. An excellent yield and purity of the alcohol and an extended service life of the catalyst are achieved.
