Pla.tinum. Platinum catalysts that utilize both phosphine and tin(Il) haUde ligands give good rates and selectivities, in contrast to platinum alone, which has extremely low or nonexistent hydroformylation activity. High specificity to the linear aldehyde from 1-pentene or 1-heptene is obtained using HPtSnClgCO(1 1P) (26), active at 100°C and 20 MPa (290 psi) producing 95% -hexanal from 1-pentene. 

Ca.ta.lysts, A small amount of quinoline promotes the formation of rigid foams (qv) from diols and unsaturated dicarboxyhc acids (100). Acrolein and methacrolein 1,4-addition polymerisation is catalysed by lithium complexes of quinoline (101). Organic bases, including quinoline, promote the dehydrogenation of unbranched alkanes to unbranched alkenes using platinum on sodium mordenite (102). The peracetic acid epoxidation of a wide range of alkenes is catalysed by 8-hydroxyquinoline (103). Hydroformylation catalysts have been improved using 2-quinolone [59-31-4] (104) (see Catalysis).

The first example of homogeneous transition metal catalysis in an ionic liquid was the platinum-catalyzed hydroformylation of ethene in tetraethylammonium trichlorostannate (mp. 78 °C), described by Parshall in 1972 (Scheme 5.2-1, a)) [1]. In 1987, Knifton reported the ruthenium- and cobalt-catalyzed hydroformylation of internal and terminal alkenes in molten [Bu4P]Br, a salt that falls under the now accepted definition for an ionic liquid (see Scheme 5.2-1, b)) [2]. The first applications of room-temperature ionic liquids in homogeneous transition metal catalysis were described in 1990 by Chauvin et al. and by Wilkes et ak. Wilkes et al. used weekly acidic chloroaluminate melts and studied ethylene polymerization in them with Ziegler-Natta catalysts (Scheme 5.2-1, c)) [3]. Chauvin s group dissolved nickel catalysts in weakly acidic chloroaluminate melts and investigated the resulting ionic catalyst solutions for the dimerization of propene (Scheme 5.2-1, d)) [4]. 

As early as 1972 Parshall described the platinum-catalyzed hydroformylation of ethene in tetraethylammonium trichlorostannate melts [1]. [NEt4][SnCl3], the ionic liquid used for these investigations, has a melting point of 78 °C. Recently, platinum-catalyzed hydroformylation in the room-temperature chlorostannate ionic liquid [BMIM]Cl/SnCl2 was studied in the author s group. The hydroformylation of 1-octene was carried out with remarkable n/iso selectivities (Scheme 5.2-13) [66]. 

The main use of rhodium is with platinum in catalysts for oxidation of automobile exhaust emissions. In the chemical industry, it is used in catalysts for the manufacture of ethanoic acid, in hydroformylation of alkenes and the synthesis of nitric acid from ammonia. Many applications of iridium rely on...

Hydroformylation represents the most industrially important homogeneous catalysed reaction by volume [2, 3]. The petrochemical, agrochemical and pharmaceutical industries are particularly interested in this transformation. The reaction uses syngas (COiH mix) and a catalyst, commonly rhodium or platinum, to transform an olefin into an aldehyde (Scheme 9.1) [4]. 

The new family of phospholes with 2,4,6-trialkylphenyl substituent on the phosphorus atom show, in many respects, a special reactivity. Due to the flattening of the P-pyramid, the arylphospholes exhibit aromaticity and hence underwent Friedel-Crafts reactions. The regioselective functionalization through reaction with phosphorus tribromide gave a variety of phospholes with an exocyclic P-moiety. Novel phosphole platinum and rhodium complexes were prepared and a part of them was tested in hydroformylation reactions. 

Although most of the reports that have appeared since 1980 on hydroformylation of alkenes focus on rhodium catalysts, alkene hydroformylation catalyzed by Ptn complexes in the presence of Sn11 halides has been the object of great interest and platinum can be considered as the second metal in hydroformylation.77-79... 

Stoichiometric model reactions in alkene hydroformylation by platinum-tin systems have been studied for the independent steps involved in the hydroformylation process, insertion of the alkene, insertion of CO, and hydrogenolysis, with use of Pt-Sn catalysts and 1-pentene as alkene at low pressure and temperature.92... 

The importance of the platinum-tin linkage in hydroformylation chemistry has promoted the publication of several articles dealing with this subject. 31P, 119Sn, 195Pt, and 13C NMR studies have been helpful in this aspect of the reaction.93-95... 

Mono and binuclear platinum(II) complexes with diphosphines have been reported as catalysts in the hydroformylation reaction. Dppp and related diphosphines are used as ligands in platinum/Sn systems for the hydroformylation of different substrates.99-107... 

Platinum complexes [PtCl2(diphosphine)] and [PtCl(SnCl3)(diphosphine)] of the ferrocenyl diphosphine ligands (35a), (35b), and (36) have been synthesized. Complexes [PtCl2(35)] and [PtCl2(36)] have been structurally characterized by XRD. Both the preformed and the in situ catalysts have been used in the hydroformylation of styrene.112... 

Until recently, the hydroformylation using palladium had been scarcely explored as the activity of palladium stayed behind that of more active platinum complexes. The initiating reagents are often very similar to those of platinum, i.e., divalent palladium salts, which under the reaction conditions presumably form monohydrido complexes of palladium(II). A common precursor is (39). The mechanism for palladium catalysts is, therefore, thought to be the same as that for platinum. New cationic complexes of palladium that are highly active as hydroformylation catalysts were discovered by Drent and co-workers at Shell and commercial applications may be expected, involving replacement of cobalt catalysts. 

Platinum complexes with chiral phosphorus ligands have been extensively used in asymmetric hydroformylation. In most cases, styrene has been used as the substrate to evaluate the efficiency of the catalyst systems. In addition, styrere was of interest as a model intermediate in the synthesis of arylpropionic acids, a family of anti-inflammatory drugs.308,309 Until 1993 the best enantio-selectivities in asymmetric hydroformylation were provided by platinum complexes, although the activities and regioselectivities were, in many cases, far from the obtained for rhodium catalysts. A report on asymmetric carbonylation was published in 1993.310 Two reviews dedicated to asymmetric hydroformylation, which appeared in 1995, include the most important studies and results on platinum-catalogued asymmetric hydroformylation.80,81 A report appeared in 1999 about hydrocarbonylation of carbon-carbon double bonds catalyzed by Ptn complexes, including a proposal for a mechanism for this process.311... 

The cA-PtCl2(diphosphine)/SnCl2 constitutes the system mostly used in catalyzed hydroformylation of alkenes and many diphosphines have been tested. In the 1980s, Stille and co-workers reported on the preparation of platinum complexes with chiral diphosphines related to BPPM (82) and (83) and their activity in asymmetric hydroformylation of a variety of prochiral alkenes.312-314 Although the branched/normal ratios were low (0.5), ees in the range 70-80% were achieved in the hydroformylation of styrene and related substrates. When the hydroformylation of styrene, 2-ethenyl-6-methoxynaphthalene, and vinyl acetate with [(-)-BPPM]PtCl2-SnCl2 were carried out in the presence of triethyl orthoformate, enantiomerically pure acetals were obtained. 

Platinum(II) complexes with diphosphines based on DIOP (85),315-321 CHIRAPHOS (86),316,320 and bdpp (87)322-325 backbones have been prepared to be used, in the presence of SnCl2, as catalyst precursors in asymmetric hydroformylation of styrene and other alkenes. 

Alkylated diphosphines (R,R)-(92) and (93) were used as chiral ligands in the Pt-catalyzed hydroformylations of some alkeneic substrates. These ligands bring about a loss of catalytic activity with respect to the corresponding diphenylphosphine homolog, particularly in the case of the platinum systems. The regioselectivity favors the straight-chain (or less branched) isomer in the case of terminal alkenes with the exception of styrene the enantioselectivity is very low in all cases.320... 

The influence of steric and electronic effects of diphosphites (111) and (112) have been studied with regard to their catalytic performance on the hydroformylation of styrene catalyzed by platinum complexes. The highest chemoselectivity to aldehyde (71%) and regioselectivity to branched aldehyde (85%), with an enantiomeric excess of 86%, was obtained with the plat-inum(II)-SnCl2 catalytic system associated with ligand (25, 45)-bis(5)-(lll).340... 

Chiral bis-(binaphthophosphole) (bis(BNP)) ligands have been used in the asymmetric hydroformylation of styrene. In solution, the free diphospholes display fluxional behavior. Consistent with their structure, the reaction of the bis(BNP) compounds with platinum(II) derivatives gives either cis chelate mononuclear complexes or trans phosphorus-bridged polynuclear derivatives. Coordination to platinum enhances the conformational stability of bis(BNP)s and diastereomeric complexes can be detected in solution. In the presence of SnCl2, the platinum complexes give rise to catalysts that exhibit remarkable activity in the hydroformylation of styrene. Under optimum conditions, reaction takes place with high branched selectivity (80-85%) and moderate enantio-selectivity (up to 45% ee). 

Most of the reports on Rh-catalyzed asymmetric hydroformylation are concerned with asymmetric hydroformylation of vinyl aromatics, which are model substrates of interest to the pharmaceutical industry. In 1993 and 1995, reports were published describing the state of the art in hydroformylation with both rhodium and platinum systems.80,81 310 Two reports appeared in 1999 and 2000 on carbonylation and rhodium asymmetric hydroformylation respectively.311,345... 

While cobalt and rhodium have been the focus of most research and are the metals of choice for commercial hydroformylation reactions, numerous other metals have been disclosed as catalysts in the patent literature. However, only some of the carbonyl-forming metals can be seriously considered. Even of these, a comparison of relative reactivity (118) based on cobalt as the standard indicates a decided preference for only two or three metals. This listing may be considered incomplete without the inclusion of platinum and copper, which have recently received significant attention (vide infra).
