Abstract:It is an industrial process for synthesizing aldehydes and alcohols from olefins and synthesis gas (i.e., carbon monoxide and hydrogen) in the presence of a cobalt or rhodium catalyst at high pressures (100–200 atm) and high temperatures (115–190°C) with the attachment of a new carbon to the less‐substituted end of the double bonds is known as hydroformylation. This process is completed in two stages: the production of aldehydes and the further reduction of aldehydes into alcohols. In addition, the straight‐ch… Show more
