ABSTRACT:
Allyl formate is substantially selectively converted to isobutyric acid, n-butyric acid and/or glutaric acid by bringing the alyl formate into contact with activated carbon in the presence of carbon monoxide, water and formic acid and a halide promoted group VIII soluble metal catalyst optionally in the presence of a solvent. Isobutyric and n-butyric acids are preferentially formed in the presence of relatively low concentrations of water and formic acid whereas glutaric acid is preferentially formed in the presence of relatively higher concentrations of water and formic acid.
