Abstract


This investigation describes an experimental examination of a new family of chiral rhodium complexes towards catalytic enantioselective hydroformylation. Both free bis-N-heterocyclic carbene and enetetramine ligand precursors are used to metallate Rh(I) salts under mild conditions. All catalysts prepared exhibit high conversion and regioselectivity for three substrates (styrene, vinyl acetate, allyl cycanide) but poor enantioselectivity.
