  Verfahren zur Herstellung von   7-Cyclohexylheptanol- (l)   und   7-Cyclohexylheptandiöl- (l,   4) 
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines trennbaren Gemisches von 7-Cyclohexylheptanol-(1) und 7-Cyclohexylheptandiol-(1,4) durch hydrierende Aufspaltung des Lactonringes von y-Cyclohexylpropyl-y-butyrolacton. 



   Es ist bekannt, dass y-und 6-Lactone sich durch Hydrierung mit Kupferchromitkatalysatoren nach Adkins in zwei Richtungen spalten lassen. Man erhält, je nach der Richtung, in der die C-O-C Bindung hydrierend gesprengt wird, einen zweiwertigen und einen einwertigen Alkohol, welche als Gemisch anfallen. 



   Es wurde nun gefunden, dass y-Cyclohexylpropyl-y-butyrolacton, gelöst in Dioxan, durch Hydrierung in Gegenwart von 20 bis 25 Gew.-% Kupferchromithydrierungskatalysatoren bei Temperaturen von 240 bis 250 C, vorzugsweise   250 C,   und Drücken von 230 bis 260 atü, vorzugsweise 250 atü, in an sich bekannter Weise unter Aufspaltung des Lactonringes zu Alkoholen der   nachstehend aufgeführten Formel führt :   
 EMI1.1 
 
Das   erfindungsgemäss   als Ausgangsstoff einzusetzende y-Cyclohexylpropyl-y-butyrolacton kann beispielsweise durch Hydrierung von [5-Phenylfuryl-(2)]-propionsäureester bei 2500C und 260 at in Gegenwart von Raney-Nickel hergestellt werden. 



   Die erfindungsgemäss hergestellten Alkohole können beispielsweise als   Lösungs- und   Verschnittmittel sowie als Veresterungskomponente in der Polyester- und Weichmacherindustr e verwendet werden. 



   Beispiel : 150 g y-Cyclohexylpropyl-y-butyrolacton werden in Dioxan gelöst und mit 40 g Kupferchromitkontakt bei 2500C und 250 atü im Schüttelautoklaven hydriert. Nach Abdestillation des Lösungsmittels erhält man durch fraktionierende Destillation 60 g   7-Cyclohexylheptanol- (1)   vom    Kpl     120-121 C   und 57 g   7-Cyclohexylheptandiol- (l, 4)   vom Kp1 160-1620C.

  Process for the production of 7-cyclohexylheptanol- (l) and 7-cyclohexylheptanediöl- (l, 4)
The invention relates to a process for the production of a separable mixture of 7-cyclohexylheptanol- (1) and 7-cyclohexylheptanediol- (1,4) by hydrogenative splitting of the lactone ring of γ-cyclohexylpropyl-γ-butyrolactone.



   It is known that γ- and 6-lactones can be split in two directions by hydrogenation using Adkins copper chromite catalysts. Depending on the direction in which the C-O-C bond is hydrogenatedly broken, a dihydric and a monohydric alcohol are obtained, which are obtained as a mixture.



   It has now been found that γ-cyclohexylpropyl-γ-butyrolactone, dissolved in dioxane, by hydrogenation in the presence of 20 to 25% by weight of copper chromite hydrogenation catalysts at temperatures of 240 to 250 ° C., preferably 250 ° C., and pressures of 230 to 260 atmospheres , preferably 250 atm, leads in a known manner with splitting of the lactone ring to alcohols of the following formula
 EMI1.1
 
The γ-cyclohexylpropyl-γ-butyrolactone to be used as a starting material according to the invention can be prepared, for example, by hydrogenation of [5-phenylfuryl- (2)] propionic acid ester at 2500 ° C. and 260 atm in the presence of Raney nickel.



   The alcohols prepared according to the invention can be used, for example, as solvents and co-solvents and as esterification components in the polyester and plasticizer industries.



   Example: 150 g of γ-cyclohexylpropyl-γ-butyrolactone are dissolved in dioxane and hydrogenated with 40 g of copper chromite contact at 2500 ° C. and 250 atm. In a shaking autoclave. After distilling off the solvent, fractional distillation gives 60 g of 7-cyclohexylheptanol- (1) of Kpl 120-121 C and 57 g of 7-cyclohexylheptanediol- (1,4) of bp 160-1620C.
