Palladium(0) complexes [Pd(PPh3)4 or Pd(dba) 2], (dba = dibenzylideneacetone) in the presence of 1,4-bis(diphenylphosphino)butane, can catalyse the reaction of alkenes and formate esters to give linear carboxylic esters as the major product, while the branched chain isomer was the principal ester obtained by use of a palladium(II) complex [bis(triphenylphosphine)palladium dichloride] as the catalyst.
Process for the production of esters

Carboxylic acid esters are produced by reacting an olefinic hydrocarbon with an ester of formic acid in the presence of both carbon monoxide and oxygen at a temperature of up to 200° and a pressure of up to 300 bar in the presence of water, typically in a
