Paragraph 0068; 0077-0080, (2021/11/03)
The catalyst composition comprises a bidentate phosphine ligand and a rhodium complex, wherein the skeleton of the bidentate phosphine ligand not only has C. 2 The symmetry and the appropriate rigidity, and the phosphine ligand derived based on the skeleton can provide effective steric hindrance around the catalyst center metal, so that the selectivity of the catalyst can be remarkably improved, the aldehyde yield is not lower 92% when the catalyst combination is applied to the hydroformylation reaction, and the selectivity of n-aldehyde is not lower 90%. In addition, the raw materials olefins with different structures can obtain outstanding reaction rate and normal aldehyde selectivity as compared with the existing catalyst systems, and can be suitable for the hydroformylation reaction of more types of olefins.

Performing carbonylation without the use of carbon monoxide for high-value-added products is an attractive yet challenging topic in sustainable chemistry. Herein, effective methods for producing linear aldehydes or alcohols selectively with formic acid as both carbon monoxide and hydrogen source have been described. Linear-selective hydroformylation of alkenes proceeds smoothly with up to 88 % yield and >30 regioselectivity in the presence of single Rh catalyst. Strikingly, introducing Ru into the system, the dual Rh/Ru catalysts accomplish efficient and regioselective hydroxymethylation in one pot. The present processes utilizing formic acid as syngas surrogate operate simply under mild condition, which opens a sustainable way for production of linear aldehydes and alcohols without the need for gas cylinders and autoclaves. As formic acid can be readily produced via CO2 hydrogenation, the protocols represent indirect approaches for chemical valorization of CO2.

Since its discovery in 1938, hydroformylation has been thoroughly investigated and broadly applied in industry (>107 metric ton yearly). However, the ability to precisely control its regioselectivity with well-established Rh- or Co-catalysts has thus far proven elusive, thereby limiting access to many synthetically valuable aldehydes. Pd-catalysts represent an appealing alternative, yet their use remains sparse due to undesired side-processes. Here, we report a highly selective and exceptionally active catalyst system that is driven by a novel activation strategy and features a unique Pd(I)-Pd(I) mechanism, involving an iodide-assisted binuclear step to release the product. This method enables β-selective hydroformylation of a large range of alkenes and alkynes, including sensitive starting materials. Its utility is demonstrated in the synthesis of antiobesity drug Rimonabant and anti-HIV agent PNU-32945. In a broader context, the new mechanistic understanding enables the development of other carbonylation reactions of high importance to chemical industry.
