1,7-Octadiene can be prepared by hydrodimerizing butadiene in the presence of solubilized palladium, a tertiary phosphine, formic acid, a base and optionally an organic solvent. The yield of 1,7-octadiene is increased if the hydrodimerization is also carried out in the presence of a supported palladium, platinum and/or rhodium catalyst and wherein the ratio of the metal in the supported catalyst to the solubilized palladium ranges from about 0.001 to 10. |
