ABSTRACT:
Acetaldehyde is produced from ethane by contacting ethane in the absence of added chlorine or hydrogen chloride with a molten mixture of the higher and lower valent form of a multivalent metal chloride and the oxychloride of the metal, such as a mixture of cuprous chloride, cupric chloride and copper oxychloride, in the presence of ethylene and ethyl chloride and optionally also vinyl chloride. Acetaldehyde is produced with no net production of ethyl chloride and ethylene, and if vinyl chloride is present, no net production of vinyl chloride.
