文摘This work detailed the preparation of a class of water-soluble PNP ligands that differed by the nature of the substitute on phenyl ring of ligands. These ligands were incorporated into water-soluble rhodium-PNP complex catalysts that were used to regioselective hydroformylation of a series of terminal arylalkenes,providing efficient access to rac-α-aryl propionaldehydes in good to excellent yield(up to 97%) and branched-regioselectivity(up to 40:1 b/l ratio). Furthermore, gram-scale and diverse synthetic transformation demonstrated synthetic application of this methodology for non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs.

文摘Four monodentate P-ligands and their mixtures（six groups of double-ligand systems,four groups of triple-ligand systems and one group of tetra-ligand system）were used with Rh（acac）（CO）2（acac=acetylacetonate）or Rh（acac）CO（PPh3）as the catalyst in the hydroformylation reaction of 1-butene.It was found that different Rh catalysts showed little difference in the catalysis performance.The general order of catalysis performance is doubleligand system 〉 single-ligand system〉triple-ligand system 〉 tetra-ligand system.Some synergistic effect in the double-ligand system was detected which needs a further investigation.

文摘A phosphite ligand modified Rh/SiO2 catalyst has been developed for hydroformylation of internal olefins to linear aldehydes, which showed high activity and regioselectivity and could be separated easily by filtration after reaction in an autoclave. Effects of reaction temperature and syngas pressure on the performances of the catalyst in the reaction were also investigated.
文摘The promotion effect of cationic gemini surfactants for the hydroformylation of 1-dodecene in the organic/aqueous biphasic catalytic system is reported. The hydroformylation reaction in the presence of gemini surfactant occurred with higher turnover frequency and higher selectivity for linear aldehyde than using conventional monomeric surfactant CTAB.

文摘MCM 41 molecular sieve supported Rh PPh 3 catalysts were prepared by the in situ assembling of the metal complex from smaller moieties of Rh(acac)(CO) 2 and ligand of PPh 3. The resulted vip/host materials(Rh PPh 3/MCM 41) were characterized by X ray powder diffraction, FTIR and 31 P( 1H) NMR, and served as catalysts for propene hydroformylation. The results showed negligible change in MCM 41 framework after propene hydroformylation at 393 K. Higher hydroformylation activities were obtained on Rh PPh 3/MCM 41 catalysts compared to that on Rh PPh 3/SiO 2.
