Abstract

Pentaerthyritol was prepared from formaldehyde and acetaldehyde with mixed solution of Na2CO3 and NaHCO3 as catalyst. The optimum conditions of condensation reaction were temperature (25 -30) ℃ ,reaction time 1h, mole ratio of formaldehyde to acetaldehyde 8, and mole ratio of sodium hydro-gencarbonate to acetaldehyde 1. 8. The optimun conditions of Cannizzaro reaction were temperature 65℃ , reaction time (1. 5-2) h. The yield was 83. 8%(based on acetaldehyde) with product purity of 98%.
