Two Carbonylations of Methyl Iodide and Trimethylamine to Acetic acid and N,N-Dimethylacetamide by Rhodium(I) Complex: Stability of Rhodium(I) Complex under Anhydrous Condition

Rhodium(I)-complex [Rh(CO)2I2−] (1) catalyzed two carbonylations of methyl iodide and trimethylamine in NMP (1-methyl-2-pyrolidone) to acetic acid and DMAC (N,N-dimethylacetamide) in the presence of calcium oxide and water. The carbonylation of trimethylamine continued during the carbonylation and...
