Hydroformylation of alkenes by use of rhodium complex catalysts
Abstract
The use of complexes of rhodium of the type trans-RhX(CO)(PR3)2, (X = halogen, R = aryl) as hydroformylation catalysts for alkenes is studied. It is shown that an inhibition period is removed by addition of hydrogen halide acceptors and that the halide complex undergoes hydrogenolysis to form a hydrido-species. The hydrido-species is only one of several complexes in equilibrium but it appears that the principal active catalytic species is RhH(CO)2(PPh3)2. This species is formed by addition of carbon monoxide to the monocarbonyl complex RhH(CO)(PPh3)2. The latter is also formed by dissociation when the stable crystalline complex RhH(CO)(PPh3)3 is dissolved in benzene or other solvents. With RhH(CO)(PPh3)3 as catalyst, alkenes undergo rapid hydroformylation even at 25°/1 atm.; with alk-1-enes the ratio of straight- to branched-chain aldehyde formed is considerably higher than the ratios normally found in hydroformylation reactions, being ca. 20 at 25°. Hydrogen atom exchange and isomerisation reactions of alkenes with RhH(CO)(PPh3)3 are described.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
