This invention relates in part to processes for producing one or more substituted or unsubstituted aldehyde acids or salts, e.g., 5-formylvaleric acid or salt, which comprises subjecting one or more substituted or unsubstituted alkadienes, e.g., butadiene, to hydroxycarbonylation in the presence of a hydroxycarbonylation catalyst, e.g., a metal-organophosphorus ligand complex catalyst, and optionally neutralization with a base to produce one or more substituted or unsubstituted unsaturated acids or salts, e.g., pentenoic acid or salt, and subjecting said one or more substituted or unsubstituted unsaturated acids or salts to hydroformylation in the presence of a hydroformylation catalyst, e.g., a metal-organophosphorus ligand complex catalyst, to produce said one or more substituted or unsubstituted aldehyde acids or salts and/or one or more substituted or unsubstituted epsilon caprolactam precursors. This invention also relates in part to reaction mixtures containing one or more substituted or unsubstituted aldehyde acids or salts as the principal product(s) of reaction.
本发明部分涉及生产一种或多种取代或未取代的醛酸或盐,例如 5-甲酰基戊酸或盐的工艺,其中包括将一种或多种取代或未取代的烯烃,例如丁二烯,在羟基羰基化催化剂,例如金属有机磷配位体络合物催化剂存在下进行羟基羰基化,并可选择地用碱中和、丁二烯,在羟基羰基化催化剂(如金属有机磷配位体络合物催化剂)存在下进行羟基羰基化,并可选择用碱中和,以生成一种或多种取代或未取代的不饱和酸或盐,如戊烯酸或盐,并使所述一种或多种取代或未取代的不饱和酸或盐在氢甲酰化催化剂(如金属有机磷配位体络合物催化剂)存在下进行氢甲酰化反应,以生成所述一种或多种取代或未取代的醛酸或盐和/或一种或多种取代或未取代的epsilon己内酰胺前体。本发明还部分涉及含有一种或多种取代或未取代醛酸或盐作为主要反应产物的反应混合物。
