Low-pressure synthesis of cyclohexanedimethanol and derivatives

The invention is directed to a process for preparing a 1,4-disubstituted cyclohexane compound of formula (I): where A is —OH, —OR, Br, or Cl; and R is a silyl group, a hydrocarbyl group, or an acyl group having 1 to 12 carbon atoms. The process includes the steps of reacting ethylene with a (2E,4E)-hexa-2,4-diene compound to produce a 3,6-disubstituted cyclohex-1-ene compound, and hydrogenating the 3,6-disubstituted cyclohex-1-ene compound to yield the 1,4-disubstituted cyclohexane compound of formula (I).
