ABSTRACT:
An improved method of preparing an aldehyde by passing alcohol and air through a reactor containing a silver catalyst is disclosed. Briefly, the improvment comprises passing the alcohol and air through a zone, packed with silver catalyst, maintained at subreaction temperature prior to passing the reactants through the reaction zone. In a preferred embodiment, the reactants, after leaving the reaction zone, are passed through a zone containing inert material and maintained at a subreaction temperature.
