Abstract
Supported homogeneous film catalysts are described which, in effect, h eterogenize biphasic systems. Water-soluble catalysts are added to hyd rophilic films, e.g., polyethylene glycol 600, to catalyze the reactio ns of hydrophobic substrates. Activities are obtained for the hydrofor mylation of 1-hexene equal to those obtained in homogeneous systems. E xperiments are described that indicate that the reactions are occurrin g in the homogeneous film dispersed over the solid support. (C) 1995 A cademic Press, Inc.
