by dimerization of α- olefin to form a vinylidene olefin, followed by isomerization was then directly reacted with the CO / H 2 to react with CO / H 2 under Oxo conditions or under conditions oxo alcohols having a branched chain in the middle to substantially the middle To obtain. These branched alcohols are feedstocks for the production of alkyl sulfates, alkyl ethoxy sulfates and alkyl carboxylate surfactants and other surfactants. |
