The hydroformylation of butadiene catalysed by rhodium-diphosphine complexes

Bidentate phosphine ligands bridged by two carbon atoms strongly promote the rhodium-catalysed hydrofonnylation of 1,3-dienes. Particularly interesting is a conversion under mild conditions of butadiene to pentanal with over 90% selectivity and less than 1% branched products. A mechanism involving η...

Summary:Bidentate phosphine ligands bridged by two carbon atoms strongly promote the rhodium-catalysed hydrofonnylation of 1,3-dienes. Particularly interesting is a conversion under mild conditions of butadiene to pentanal with over 90% selectivity and less than 1% branched products. A mechanism involving η 3-allyl rhodium species is proposed.
