The ligand is especially useful in catalysts and catalyst precursors for hydroformylation processes wherein a raffinate stream comprising a mixture of alpha, beta, and iso-olefinic isomers is hydroformylated in the presence of carbon monoxide, hydrogen, and the transition metal-ligand complex catalyst to form a mixture of linear and branched aldehyde products. The complex catalyst selectively converts the alpha and beta olefin reactants more rapidly than the iso-olefin reactant resulting in an improved molar ratio of normal (linear) to branched aldehyde products. The unconverted iso-olefinic isomer is thereafter readily separated from the aldehyde product mixture.

  • Publication number: 20090299099
    Abstract: This invention is directed to a class of compounds that can be both monodentate and bidentate in their association with a transition metal to form a catalyst for reactions such as the hydroformylation of olefins to produce aldehydes. The compounds contain two phosphorus atoms having different steric and/or electronic nature. In hydroformylation catalysts, the compounds advantageously can produce a variable n/iso product mixture of aldehyde products that can be varied by simply changing process variables such as [H2]/[CO] partial pressure gas ratio or temperature/inert gas partial pressure.
