The aqueous biphasic hydroformylation of oleyl alcohol was achieved under thermo-regulated phase transfer catalysis (TRPTC) conditions with Rh(acac)(CO)2 Ph2P[p-C6H4 (OCH2CH2)25OH] (PETPP) complex catalyst formed in s...The aqueous biphasic hydroformylation of oleyl alcohol was achieved under thermo-regulated phase transfer catalysis (TRPTC) conditions with Rh(acac)(CO)2 Ph2P[p-C6H4 (OCH2CH2)25OH] (PETPP) complex catalyst formed in situ. The aldehyde yield reached 81.2% within 6 hrs under 140℃ and 5.0 MPa (CO/H2,1/1) and the separated catalysts dissolved in the aqueous phase could be reused for 3 times without evident changes in activity.展开更多
Polyether-tailored phosphite modified rhodium complex formed in situ was highly active in the hydroformylation of oleyl alcohol in nonaqueous phosphite/heptane system where the phosphite acted both as the ligand and t...Polyether-tailored phosphite modified rhodium complex formed in situ was highly active in the hydroformylation of oleyl alcohol in nonaqueous phosphite/heptane system where the phosphite acted both as the ligand and the second phase. This catalyst was easily separated by simple decantation and can be used for five times with only a slight decrease in activity.展开更多

Response surface methodology (RSM) based on 5-level, 3-variable of centre composite rotatable design (CCRD) was used to evaluate the interactive effects of synthesis, of temperature (40-60 ℃); amount of enzyme (0.1-0.4 g) and substrate molar ratio of oleyl alcohol to palmitic acid (1:1-4:1) on the percentage yield of wax ester. All reactions were fixed at 1 hour of reaction time. The optimum condition obtained from RSM for the reactions were temperature of 57.9 ℃, enzyme amount of 0.26 g and molar ratio of substrates of 2.92. The actual experimental yield was 91.2% under the optimum condition, which compared well with the maximum predicted value of 92.0%. Comparison of predicted and experimental values reveal good correspondence between them, implying that empirical models derived from RSM can be used to adequately describe the relationship between the factors and response in the synthesis of oleyl palmitate.展开更多
