Saturated aliphatic oxo-compounds (carbon number 513) were derived from saturated aliphatic alcohols (carbon number 513) when saturated aliphatic alcohols were thermally dehydrogenated with catalyst systems composed of copper and zinc, at 257°294°C under a reduced pressure.
1) Dehydrogenation of saturated aliphatic alcohols gave saturated aliphatic oxo-compound products in almost quantitative yield excluding the case of 2-ethyl-hexanol.
2) Catalyst systems composed of copper and zinc were found possible for repeated use, and these are effective for dehydrogenation of saturated aliphatic alcohols.
