Abstract
The hydroformylation of olefinic hydrocarbons is effected by treating the hydrocarbon with hydrogen and carbon monoxide in the presence of a catalyst system which comprises a cobalt-containing compound chemically bonded to a zeolite-alumina hydrosol dispersion. The reaction is effected at temperatures ranging from about 70.degree. to about 300.degree. C. and pressures ranging from about 1 to about 500 atmospheres.
Claims16
A process for the hydroformylation of an olefinic hydrocarbon which comprises treating said hydrocarbon with carbon monoxide and hydrogen at hydroformylation conditions in the presence of a catalyst system comprising a cobalt-containing compound chemically bonded to a zeolite-alumina hydrosol dispersion which has been aged at a temperature of from about 30.degree. to about 500.degree. C. and recovering the resultant hydroformylated products.
