The procedure in Example 1 was followed but instead of the acetoxybutyraldehyde isomer mixture, 4-acetoxybutyraldehyde was employed and the hydrogenation was carried out in the presence of 5% by weight of methanol. After a hydrogenation time of 35 minutes, and after filtering off the catalyst and freeing the filtrate from methanol, 4-acetoxybutan-1-ol was obtained in 99% yield.
