Abstract

Rhodium(I) complexes, [Rh(COD)(amine)2](PF6) (COD = 1,5-cyclooctadiene, amine = 4-picoline, 3-picoline, 2-picoline, pyridine, 3,5-lutidine or 2,6-lutidine) immobilized on poly(4-vinylpyridine) in contact with water catalyzed both the hydroxycarbonylation of 1-hexene to propionic acid and the water-gas shift reaction (WGSR). The role of the coordinated amine on the catalytic activity was examined.
