Dendritic rhodium catalyst precursors for the hydroformylation of olefins
The hydroformylation reaction is the transition-metal catalysed addition of CO/H2 to olefins, resulting in linear and/or branched aldehydes. This reaction is in accordance with Green Chemistry principles, as it operates with 100% atom efficiency and uses renewable feedstocks such as olefins from the...
