Abstract
Graphite and polymer-supported palladium catalysts, coupled with coppe r/lithium cocatalysts, have been found very effective for the oxidativ e carbonylation of unsaturated hydrocarbons. Hex-3-ene-1,6-dioate has been generated in 85% selectivity from 1,3-butadiene, alpha-olefins yi eld dimethyl succinate derivatives. Butadiene hydrodimerization via an alogous platinum catalysis selectively provides 1,6-octadiene, or 2,7- octadienyl formate. Mechanisms for the product selectivity are describ ed.
