Aj. Pardey et al., Rhodium amino complexes [Rh(COD)(amine)(2)] PF6 immobilized on poly(4-vinylpyridine) as catalysts in the water gas shift reaction, REACT KIN C, 67(2), 1999, pp. 325-331
Catalysts for the water gas shift reaction prepared from Rh(COD)(amine)(2)
PF6 (COD = 1,5-cyclooctadiene, amine 4-picoline, 3-picoline, 2-picoline, py
ridine, 3,5-lutidine or 2,6-lutidine) immobilized on poly(4-vinylpyridine)
in contact with 80% aqueous 2-ethoxyethanol for 1x10(-4) mol Rh/0.5 g of po
lymer, P(CO) = 0.9 atm at 100 degrees C, are described. The role of the coo
rdinated amine effect on the catalytic activity was investigated.
