Abstract
A rhodium complex containing tris(o-tert-butyl-p-methylphenyl) phosphite as a ligand catalyses the hydroformylation of oct-1-ene with good selectivity and extremely high rates; the rate constant, which is pseudo first-order in [H2] and 1/[CO], shows that the reaction of hydrogen is the rate determining step.Keywords
