Title:
ONE-STEP PRODUCTION OF 1,3-PROPANEDIOL FROM ETHYLENE OXIDE AND SYNGAS WITH A CATALYST WITH A N-HETEROCYCLIC LIGAND
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2002094425
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A catalyst composition comprising: a) a cobalt component comprising one or more non-ligated cobalt carbonyl compounds; and b) a ruthenium component comprising a ruthenium carbonyl compound ligated with a N-heterocyclic ligand selected from the group consisting of bidentate and multidentate N-heterocyclic ligands; and a process for preparing 1,3-propanediol using such a catalyst composition.
