A process for preparing a detergent alcohol mixture comprising the steps of providing one or more poly-branched poly-olefins, wherein the poly-branched poly-olefins must contain one non-branched terminal olefin and one or more additional branched olefins in the molecule; hydroformylating said poly-branched poly-olefins to produce a poly-branched olefin containing aldehyde product with one or more olefins or mixture thereof; reducing the aldehyde product of step (b) in the presence of hydrogen and a hydrogenation catalyst to form a poly-branched detergent alcohol mixture; and removing said poly-branched alcohol mixture from said catalyst and branched aldehydes, alcohols and surfactants produced from the products of this process.
An acyclic aldehyde having either 16 or 21 carbon atoms comprising at least three branches and three or less carbon-carbon double bonds wherein the acyclic aldehyde is derived from a starting polybranched polyolefin selected from the group consisting of:
A composition of matter comprising at least one acyclic aldehyde comprising 16 carbon atoms, at least three branches, and three or less carbon-carbon double bonds wherein the acyclic aldehyde is derived from a starting polybranched polyolefin selected from the group consisting of:
