LIQUID PHASE CATALYTIC CO-OXIDATION OF UNSATURATED COMPOUNDS AND ALDEHYDES OR KETONES

摘要

(i) Unsaturated compounds having at least 4 carbon atoms, including unsaturated alicyclic compounds having at least 4 carbon atoms, unsaturated aliphatic compounds having at least one carbon-carbon unsaturated bond and having at least 4 carbon atoms and unsaturated aromatic compounds having at least one carbon-carbon unsaturated bond in the branched chain thereof and (ii) aldehydes or ketones having at least 4 carbon atoms are catalytically co-oxidized with an oxygen-containing gas in a liquid phase to form a cleaveged product or products of unsaturated bond of the unsaturated compounds at a high yield. This co-oxidation reaction is carried out in the presence of a heavy metal containing iron, cobalt, nickel, ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, osmium, iridium, platinum, copper, solver, chromium, molybdenum, tungsten, manganese and rhenium and the compounds thereof.
