Nj. Meehan et al., Continuous, selective hydroformylation in supercritical carbon dioxide using an immobilised homogeneous catalyst, CHEM COMMUN, (16), 2000, pp. 1497-1498
A continuous process for the selective hydroformylation of higher olefins i
n supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO(2)) is presented; the catalyst shows h
igh selectivity and activity over several hours and no decrease in performa
nce was observed over several days.
