ABSTRACT:
A novel process for the preparation of benzyl alcohol by the hydrolysis of benzyl chloride, which operates with from 10 to 70 times the molar quantity of water at temperatures of from 80.degree. to 180.degree. C. and stops the reaction before complete conversion is reached, avoids both the addition of bases and water-soluble organic solvents and also the formation of sodium chloride.
