ABSTRACT:
Hydroxymethylcyclopropane is prepared from alkyl cyclopropanecarboxylates by reduction with hydrogen in a process in which use is made of a reduced pelletized catalyst which is obtainable by pressing a mixture of pulverulent copper, zinc and aluminum oxides and subsequent reduction. This process has the advantage that it uses a low-toxicity catalyst which has a long operating life and is particularly suitable for a continuous process and requires relatively low reaction temperatures.
