Process for producing unsaturated glycol diester.

摘要

A process for producing an unsaturated glycol diester is disclosed, which process comprises reacting a conjugated diene with a carboxylic acid and molecular oxygen in the presence of a solid catalyst comprising (1) palladium and (2) tellurium as active components supported on a carrier, wherein a said carrier is a solid carrier in which a proportion of the volume of pores having a pore radius in the range of from 5 to 50 nm is 80% or more relative to the total volume of pores having a pore radius in the range of from 1.8 to 10,000 nm.
