At the same time, in my other blogs, there are other synthetic methods of this type of compound,597-31-9, 3-Hydroxy-2,2-dimethylpropanal, and friends who are interested can also refer to it.

With the rapid development and complex challenges of chemical substances, the synthesis of new drugs is usually one of the most effective ways to increase yield.597-31-9, name is 3-Hydroxy-2,2-dimethylpropanal, molecular formula is C5H10O2, molecular weight is 102.1317, as common compound, the synthetic route is as follows.Computed Properties of C5H10O2

EXAMPLE 2 (COMPARATIVE EXPERIMENT)Hydrogenation of the HPA-Comprising Stream from Example 1The HPA-comprising stream used was the mixture prepared according to example 1.This HPA-comprising stream was first passed into a hydrogenation reactor which was operated in trickle mode at H2 pressure 37-40 bar and at 100-120 C. The hourly space velocity was 0.28 kg of solution/(1 cat.*h). The catalyst used was a Cu/Al2O3 catalyst as described in EP-A-44444 or WO-A-2007/042456, which was activated according to the disclosure of EP-A-44444 or WO-A-2007/042456 in a tubular reactor at 190 C. at ambient pressure by passing a mixture of 5% by volume of hydrogen and 95% by volume of nitrogen (total volume 50 1 (STP)/h) over it for 24 h.The hydrogenation discharge was split into two substreams.In steady-state operation, one substream as the NPG-comprising circulation stream was combined with the HPA-comprising stream.The ratio of NPG-comprising circulation stream to the HPA-comprising stream from example 1 was approx. 10:1.The composition of the circulation stream was 25% by weight of water, 68% by weight of NPG, 1.6% by weight of HPA, remainder (approx. 6% by weight) other organic compounds.The hydrogenation feed thus obtained was subsequently introduced into the hydrogenation reactor.The composition of the hydrogenation feed was 25% by weight of water, 64% by weight of NPG, 7% by weight of HPA and 4% by weight of other organic compounds.The weight ratio of HPA to NPG in the hydrogenation feed was approx. 1:9.The portion of the hydrogenation discharge which was not recycled as the NPG-comprising circulation stream was conducted through a second hydrogenation reactor.The second hydrogenation reactor was operated at 37-40 bar and a temperature of 110-130 C. The catalyst used was the same catalyst as in the first hydrogenation reactor.A pH of approx. 8 was established in the discharge of the second reactor, by adding trimethylamine (TMA) (pH regulator) to the HPA-comprising stream from example 1.The pH regulator was supplied before the combination of the HPA-comprising stream with the NPG-comprising circulation stream.The temperature of the HPA-comprising stream from example 1 on supply of the pH regulator (TMA) was 80 C. The residence time between the addition of the pH regulator and the supply of the circulation stream was 10 minutes (>5 minutes).EXAMPLE 3 (INVENTIVE EXAMPLE)Hydrogenation of the HPA-Comprising Stream from Example 1The hydrogenation was effected under the same conditions as in example 2. To establish a pH of 8 at the outlet of the second reactor, the pH regulator (TMA) was, however, supplied directly to the NPG-comprising circulation stream before the NPG-comprising stream was combined with the HPA-comprising stream from example 1. The weight ratio of HPA to NPG in the hydrogenation feed obtained by combining these streams was approx. 1:9.The composition of the hydrogenation feed was 25% by weight of water, 64% by weight of NPG, 7% by weight of HPA and 4% by weight of other organic compounds.
