    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing optionally akyl-substituted 1,4-butandiol by two-stage catalytic hydration in the gaseous phase of C4 dicarboxylic acids and/or the derivatives thereof with the steps of: a) introducing a gaseous flow of a C4 dicarboxylic acid or a derivative thereof at 200 to 300 °C and 2 to 60 bar in a first reactor and catalytic gas phase hydration to a mainly optionally alkyl-substituted gamma-butyrolactone containing product; b) introducing the product flow so obtained into a second reactor at a temperature of from 150 °C to 240 °C and a pressure of from 15 to 100 bar and catalytic gas phase hydration to optionally alkyl-substituted 1,4-butandiol; c) removing the desired product from the intermediates, byproducts and possibly not reacted educt; d) optionally returning non-reacted intermediates to one or both hydration stages, whereby in both hydration stages one catalyst each is used which comprises = 5 % by weight, preferably 5 to 95 % by weight, especially 20 to 90 % by weight of an oxidic carrier, the pressure prevailing in the second reactor is higher than in the first reactor, and the product mixture removed from the first reactor is introduced into the second reactor without further purifying it.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a method of controlling a hydrogenation of a starting material in a hydrogenation reactor, in which the amount of hydrogen reacted in the hydrogenation is firstly determined, the ratio of the amount of hydrogen reacted to the amount of starting material fed in is then derived, this ratio is compared with a prescribed value and, finally, at least one process parameter is altered if the ratio of the amount of hydrogen reacted to the amount of starting material fed in deviates by a prescribed amount from the prescribed value.

    Abstract: A partition-wall distillation column with 30-150 theoretical plates is used for working up the crude product from the electrochemical oxidation of 1,1,2,2-tetramethoxyethane with methanol in a liquid electrolyte to give trimethyl orthoformate. A method for the distillative work-up of the product (a) of the electrochemical oxidation of 1,1,2,2-tetramethoxyethane (TME) with methanol to give trimethyl orthoformate (TMOF) in a liquid electrolyte. This is carried out in a partitioned column (TK) with 30-150 theoretical plates (TPL), containing a partition in the longitudinal direction of the column so as to form a common upper zone (1), a common lower zone (6), a feed part (2, 4) with a concentrating section (2) and a stripper section (4), and a take-off part (3, 5) with a stripper section (3) and a concentrating section (5). The crude product (a) is fed into the middle part of the feed zone (2, 4), TMOF is taken off as a side-stream from the middle of the take-off zone (3, 5), low-boiling fraction(s) are taken off from the top (1) and high-boilers are taken of at the bottom (6).

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for preparing optionally alkyl-substituted 1,4-butanediol by two-stage catalytic hydrogenation in the gas phase of C 4 -dicarboxylic acids and/or of derivatives thereof having the following steps: a) introducing a gas stream of a C 4 -dicarboxylic acid or of a derivative thereof at from 200 to 300° C. and from 10 to 100 bar into a first reactor or into a first reaction zone of a reactor and catalytically hydrogenating it in the gas phase to a product which contains mainly optionally alkyl-substituted gamma-butyrolactone; b) introducing the product stream obtained in this way into a second reactor or into a second reaction zone of a reactor at a temperature of from 140° C. to 260° C. and catalytically hydrogenating it in the gas phase to optionally alkyl-substituted 1,4-butanediol; steps a) and b) being carried out at the same pressure; c) removing the desired product from intermediates, by-products and any unconverted reactants; d) optionally recycling unconverted intermediates into one or both hydrogenation stages, said hydrogenation stages each using a catalyst which comprises =5% by weight, preferably from 5 to 95% by weight, in particular from 20 to 90% by weight, of an oxidic support, and the product mixture removed from the first hydrogenation stage being introduced without further purification into the second hydrogenation stage.

    Abstract: The production of diacetals (I) of glyoxal (II) from aqueous glyoxal and monohydric alcohols (III) with an acid catalyst (IV) involves leaving a mixture of (III) and (II) in contact with (IV) until the content of (I) is at least 70% of the equilibrium concentration. production of diacetals (I) of glyoxal (II) from 40-75 wt% aqueous glyoxal and monohydric alcohols (III) with acid catalyst (IV) involves leaving a mixture of (III) and (II) (mol ratio = at least 15:1) and not more than 8 wt% water in contact with (IV) until the content of (I) is at least 70% of the equilibrium concentration (without distilling off more than 5 wt% of the alcohol).
