Procedure

Using the apparatus described above, n-butyraldehyde was fed at a WHSV of 1.2, using hydrogen as the carrier gas, at atmospheric pressure and at 200° C. over an ALPO4 -31 catalyst loaded with 0.5% of palladium. The reaction resulted in an n-butyraldehyde conversion of 50% with about 10% selectivity to 2-ethylhexaldehyde.
