ABSTRACT:
A 2,3-dihalopropanol is made by reacting 2,3-dihalopropanal with molecular hydrogen in the presence of a transition metal-containing catalyst, under conditions such that 2,3-dihalopropanol is formed. The reaction is particularly useful, for example, as Step (3) in a process to make epihalohydrin which may be generally prepared by:
