Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for preparing saturated C n - and C 2n -alcohols, wherein the ratio of C n - to C 2n -alcohols is controlled by the diversion of substreams in individual method steps.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for preparing saturated C n - and C 2n -alcohols where n=4, 5 and 6 comprising the method steps of\n a) providing a mixture of isomeric C n -aldehydes where n=4, 5 and 6, wherein the proportion of unbranched aldehydes is at least 20% by weight, based on the C n -aldehydes where n=4, 5 and 6, and dividing the mixture into a first substream and a second substream b) carrying out an aldol condensation of the aldehydes present in the first substream to obtain a mixture of C n - and \u03b1,\u03b2-unsaturated C 2n -aldehydes, c) mixing the mixture of C n - and \u03b1,\u03b2-unsaturated C 2n -aldehydes obtained in b) with the second substream provided in a) d) hydrogenating the mixture of C n - and \u03b1,\u03b2-unsaturated C 2n -aldehydes and isomeric C n -aldehydes where n=4, 5 and 6 obtained in c) with hydrogen to obtain a mixture of saturated C n  and C 2n -alcohols and e) separating the mixture of C n  and C 2n -alcohols, characterized in that the isomer ratio of the C n -alcohol obtained is adjusted by the ratio of the first and second substream produced in step a) and by the aldol condensation carried out in step b).
