Rhodium catalysed hydroformylation of unsaturated esters

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Rhodium catalysed hydroformylation of unsaturated esters has been studied. A pronounced temperature dependence was observed on the regioselectivity and catalytic activity for these reactions. and under the appropriate conditions, it is possible to obtain preferentially either linear or quaternary products. A quaternary selective hydroformylation of methyl atropate to give 1,3-aldehydic esters has also been developed. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
