Abstract

A mixture of alcohols obtained by hydroformylation of C10-C13 n-alkenes was analyzed by capillary gas chromatography using Carbowax 20M stationary phase, and acetates prepared from the alcohols were analyzed on capillary columns using Carbowax 20M and Apiezon L stationary phases. The capillary gas chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry treatment gave evidence that all of the 24 alcohols that could form by the hydroformylation reaction mechanism were present.
