Use of a complex as described above for catalysis of a hydroformylation reaction.
The invention shall be elucidated in more detail hereinbelow with reference to working examples.
A vial was charged with PtX2 (X = halogen), ligand, and an oven-dried stirrer bar. The vial is then sealed with a septum (PTFE-coated styrene-butadiene rubber) and phenolic cap. The vial is evacuated and refilled with argon three times. Toluene and 1-octene were added to the vial using a syringe. The vial was placed in an alloy plate, which was transferred to an autoclave of the 4560 series from Parr Instruments under an argon atmosphere. After purging the autoclave three times with CO/H2, the synthesis gas pressure was increased to 40 bar at room temperature. The reaction was conducted at 120° C. for 20 h. On termination of the reaction, the autoclave was cooled to room temperature and cautiously decompressed. Yield and selectivity were determined by GC analysis.
Reaction conditions: 10.0 mmol of 1-octene, 0.1 mol% PtX2, 2.2 equivalents of ligand, solvent: toluene, p(CO/H2): 40 bar, T: 120° C., t: 20 h.
Yields:
As the experimental results show, the object is achieved by the complex according to the invention.
