Carbonylation of Alkenes and Alkynes

Carbonylation of alkenes and alkynes catalysed by metal carbonyls, typically Co2(CO)8, Ni(CO)4 and Fe(CO)5 to produce aldehydes, carboxylic acids, esters, and alcohols.

Addition of H and CO to alkenes and alkynes catalysed by transition metal complexes is called hydrocarbonylation, and is useful for the syntheses of carboxylic acids, their esters, aldehydes and ketones [1]. Oxidative carbonylation of alkenes and alkynes with Pd(II), treated in Section 11.1.5, differs mechanistically from hydrocarbonylation. Some carbonylation reactions occur at under 1 atm or low pressures, without using a high-pressure laboratory apparatus. Several commercial processes based on hydrocarbonylation have been developed.
