A process for producing aliphatic alcohols by reacting carbon monoxide and hydrogen in a liquid phase in the presence of catalyst components, characterized in that rhodium and a trialkylphosphine represented by the general formula PR1R2R3 where each of R1, R2 and R3 is a primary alkyl group, a secondary alkyl group, a tertiary alkyl group or a cycloalkyl group, are used as the catalyst components. |
