Hydroformylation of glucal derivatives with rhodium catalysts. Crucial influence of the auxiliary ligand tris(ortho-tert-butylphenyl) phosphite

Abstract
Rhodium catalyst mediated hydroformylation of glucal derivatives has been achieved for the first time in good yields and selectivies using [Rh2{µ-S(CH2)3NMe2}2(cycloocta-1,5-diene)2] and tris(ortho-tert-butylphenyl) phosphite as auxiliary ligand giving, principally, 2-formyl derivatives.
