The hydroformylation of octene-1 and the removal of Co 2 (CO) 8 and HCo(CO) 4 from the reaction products including commercial C9 OXO-product were studied under biphasic conditions using an aqueous solution of different electrondonating sulfonated phosphine R n P(C 6 H 4 -m-SO 3 Na) 2 (n = 0, 1, 2; R = Me, Bu, Cp) ligands. Depending on the electronic and steric properties of the phosphines, 6−70 ppm residual cobalt concentrations could be achieved in the organic phase under 10 bar of CO/H 2 (1:1) at 75°C. The formation of several water-soluble-phosphine-substituted cobalt carbonyl species including Co 2 (CO) 6 (TPPTS) 2 , HCo(CO) 3 (TPPTS), HCo(CO) 2 (TPPTS) 2 , and [Co(CO) 3 (TPPTS) 2 ] + [Co(CO) 4 ] − were identified and monitored by in situ IR and NMR spectroscopy.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
