Aldehydes are facilely prepared in high yields by catalytically hydrocarbonylating an organic halide with gaseous admixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide in the presence of a neutralizing agent for the hydrogen acid produced thereby, said hydrocarbonylation being carried out in an inert, liquid carboxylic acid reaction medium, i.e., a liquid carboxylic acid which is inert under the reaction conditions of temperature and pressure. |
