description

Supported, air stable, and reusable hydroformylation catalysts have been prepared by immobilizing dinuclear rhodium(II) complexes bearing ortho-metalated arylphosphane ligands on amorphous silica and mesoporous MCM-41 supports by phosphane tethers. The oligosilsesquioxane model complex of the catalytic site 1 has been prepared analogously and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.
