ABSTRACT:
A process for producing higher molecular weight alcohols by forming a reaction mixture of at least one lower molecular weight primary or secondary alkanol having a methylene group adjacent the hydroxylated carbon atom, an alkali catalyst and a palladium (II) compound, said palladium compound being mixed with the alkanol prior to dissolution of the alkali catalyst therein, and heating the reaction mixture to effect condensation of the alkanol while simultaneously removing water as it forms.
