Procedure

In carrying out the novel process, furan is reacted with water in general in a molar furan/water ratio of from 1:0.1 to 1:100, preferably from 1:0.2 to 1:50, particularly preferably from 1:1 to 1:10, to give 1,4-butanediol/THF. This is effected in the presence of hydrogen and a hydrogenation catalyst at in general 100 kPa-30 MPA (1-300 bar), preferably 500 kPa-20 MPa (5-200 bar), particularly preferably 1-15 MPa (10-150 bar), and at from 20 to 300° C., preferably from 40 to 230° C., particularly preferably from 80 to 200° C.
