Procedure
An autoclave with an inner volume of 5 L was charged with 3 L of the decene oligomer produced in (a) in nitrogen gas stream, and here were added trisacetylacetonatocobalt (catalyst weight: 3.0 g) dissolved in toluene and triisobutylaluminum (30 mmol) diluted with toluene. After the reaction system was purged with hydrogen twice, it was heated and kept at 80° C. under a hydrogen pressure of 0.9 MPa. Hydrogenation immediately proceeded exothermically. When four hours passed after the reaction started, the temperature was lowered to terminate the reaction. The pressure was released, the reaction mixture was taken out of the autoclave, and the fraction of boiling at 240 to 270° C. under 530 Pa (desired compound) was isolated by simple distillation.
