Abstract
Two [Rh(acac)(CO)(L)] (LÂ =Â carbene) complexes were prepared and evaluated as catalyst precursors in the hydroformylation of 1-hexene. In the presence of an added phosphine or phosphite ligand no added benefit is derived from the presence of the carbene ligand as compared to using [Rh(acac)(CO)2] as catalyst precursor. 31P NMR spectroscopy indicates liberation of the carbene under these conditions.
