Hydrogenation and Hydroformylation Reactions Using Binuclear Diphosphine-Bridged Complexes of Rhodium

  • Chapter
Homogeneous Catalysis with Metal Phosphine Complexes

Part of the book series: Modern Inorganic Chemistry ((MICR))

Abstract

Modification of transition-metal complexes by complexation with Lewisbase ligands, especially phosphines or phosphites, has led to major improvements in catalytic reactivity and selectivity.(1,2) Further, by permitting operation of production facilities at more moderate temperatures and pressures, considerable reductions in both capital and operating costs have been realized. For example, this is true of recent installations for the production of butyraldehyde using rhodium hydroformylation catalysts.(3,4) The majority of industrial hydrogenation reactions are performed using heterogeneous catalysts.(5) Nevertheless, the homogeneous hydrogenation catalysts are of importance for laboratory-scale reactions, the synthesis of thermally unstable or otherwise sensitive products (especially those of biological interest), applications of prochiral catalysts for the production of optically-active products, notably L-dopa (see Chapter 4), and mechanistic studies.(1,2,6,7)
