We report SUPRAphos-based rhodium catalysts that are unusually regioselective in the hydroformylation of styrene at low temperatures (40 degrees C) producing mainly the linear aldehyde (72%). This ligand-specific phenomenon is observed for two rhodium catalysts with heterobidentate phosphine-phosphoramidite ligands. We propose that the high selectivity for the linear product is caused by enhanced beta-hydride elimination, due to specific substrate-ligand interactions, most likely pi-pi interactions.
我们报道了基于SUPRAphos的铑催化剂,该催化剂在低温(40摄氏度)下对苯乙烯的氢甲酰化反应具有异常的区域选择性,主要生成线性醛(72%)。对于两种带有异双齿膦-磷酰胺配体的铑催化剂,都观察到了这种配体特异性现象。我们认为,线性产物的高选择性是由于特定的底物-配体相互作用(很可能是π-π相互作用)增强了β-氢消除所致。
