摘要:
Four tertiary phosphines containing functionalized alkyl groups P(CH2CH2CN)(3), P(CH2CH2CO2CH3)(3), P(CH2CH2CH2OCH3)(3) and P(CH2CH2CH2OCH2CH3)(3) have been synthesized and used as ligands in Co-2(CO)(6)(L)(2) complexes which were fully characterized. The catalytic activity of these cobalt complexes in the hydroformylation of hex-1-ene and propene was tested. The influence of several parameters such as type of solvent, reaction temperature, carbon monoxide partial pressure, excess of free phosphine in solution, on the chemio- and regioselectivity of the reaction were investigated. These results are compared with those obtained when using Co-2(CO)(8) or Co-2(CO)(6)(PBu(3))(2) as catalytic precursors. The hydroformylation of hex-1-ene in the presence of the above complexes has been rationalized on the basis of the mechanism suggested for the hydroformylation of propene in the presence of Co-2(CO)(6)(PBu(3))(2).
