Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

This invention relates to hydrogenation processes for making cyclohexane compounds. More specifically, this invention relates to hydrogenation processes in the presence of tertiary amide solvent compounds, as well as compositions that can result from such processes. The invention thus provides processes for making cyclohexanecarboxylic acid compounds and processes for making hydroxymethylcyclohexane compounds.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . A composition comprising a hydroxymethylcyclohexane compound dissolved in a solvent, wherein the solvent comprises at least about 50% by weight of a tertiary cyclic amide solvent compound.
