Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain the subject compound having high purity by reacting crude 2-ethylhexylaldehyde in the presence of an acetalization catalyst, converting the by-product into acetal and alkenyl ether and distilling the product. CONSTITUTION:An acetalization catalyst is added to a mixture containing sufficiently large amount of 2-ethylhexylaldehyde and further containing 2- ethylbutanol and hexanol. The 2-ethylbutanol and hexanol are subjected to condensation reaction with 2-ethylhexylaldehyde to obtain an acetal and an alkenyl ether. The reaction mixture is distilled to obtain purified 2- ethylhexylaldehyde. The crude 2-ethylhexyladehyde used as a raw material is produced by carrying out aldol condensation of acetaldehyde with n- butylaldehyde and dehydrating and hydrogenating the product. The compound is useful as a starting raw material for octylic acid which is a raw material for plasticizers.
