L. Ropartz et al., Increased selectivity in hydroformylation reactions using dendrimer based catalysts; a positive dendrimer effect, CHEM COMMUN, (4), 2001, pp. 361-362
Dendrimers based on polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) cores with
16 PPh2 arms give much higher linear selectivities (14:1) than their small
molecule analogues (3-4:1) in the hydroformylation of oct-1-ene.
