The mixture can be separated by distillation. The primary phosphine is recycled for use ia the subsequent autoclave batch, the secondary phosphine is further derivatized to the corresponding phosphinic acid which is widely employed ia the iadustry for the separation of cobalt from nickel by solvent extraction. With even more hindered olefins, such as cyclohexene [110-83-8] the formation of tertiary phosphines is almost nondetectable. 

The processiag costs associated with separation and corrosion are stiU significant ia the low pressure process for the process to be economical, the efficiency of recovery and recycle of the rhodium must be very high. Consequently, researchers have continued to seek new ways to faciUtate the separation and confine the corrosion. Extensive research was done with rhodium phosphine complexes bonded to soHd supports, but the resulting catalysts were not sufficiently stable, as rhodium was leached iato the product solution (27,28). A mote successful solution to the engineering problem resulted from the apphcation of a two-phase Hquid-Hquid process (29). The catalyst is synthesized with polar -SO Na groups on the phenyl rings of the triphenylphosphine. 

The search for even more active and recyclable ruthenium-based metathesis catalysts has recently led to the development of phosphine-free complexes by combining the concept of ligation with N-heterocyclic carbenes and benzyli-denes bearing a coordinating isopropoxy ligand. The latter was exemplified for Hoveyda s monophosphine complex 13 in Scheme 5 [12]. Pioneering studies in this field have been conducted by the groups of Hoveyda [49a] and Blechert [49b], who described the phosphine-free precatalyst 71a. Compound 71a is prepared either from 56d [49a] or from 13 [49b], as illustrated in Scheme 16.

Three generations of dendritic phosphines have been prepared from 3,5-diaminobenzoylglycine and 9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl-L-phenylalanine. The dendrimers were then attached to MBHA resin, treated with CH20 and Ph2PH, and converted to their Rh complexes. The polymer-supported complexes are excellent catalysts for the hydroformylation of alkenes, which could be recycled.283 The bidentate diphosphine A,A-bis-(P-(phosphabicyclo[3.3.1] nonan) methyl)aniline was prepared by phosphanomethylation of aniline. It forms a Rh-complex which is a highly regioselective catalyst in the hydroformylation of citronellene.284... 

Under microwave heating, the Heck olefinations were achieved in 30-60 min, as opposed to 10-40 h by conventional heating. The recyclable heterogeneous LDH-Pd(0) catalytic system circumvents the need to use expensive and air-sensitive basic phosphines as ligands in the palladium-catalyzed coupling of chloroarenes. This novel Mg-Al layered double-hydroxide (LDH) support in the catalytic system stabilizes the nanopalladium particles and also supplies adequate electron density to the anchored palladium(O) species and facilitates the oxidative addition of the deactivated electron-rich chloroarenes. 

Induced Phase Separation is also a good choice for octene hydroformylation. Octene can easily dissolve in the organic based catalyst solution, and with addition of small amounts of water, nonanal and its condensation products will readily separate from the sodium salt of a monosulfonated phosphine. To choose between Liquid Recycle and Induced Phase Separation would require a detailed technical and economic study that is outside the scope of this chapter. 

In the early 1970 s, Bayer et al. reported the first use of soluble polymers as supports for the homogeneous catalysts. [52] They used non-crosslinked linear polystyrene (Mw ca. 100 000), which was chloromethylated and converted by treatment with potassium diphenylphosphide into soluble polydiphenyl(styrylmethyl)phosphines. Soluble macromolecular metal complexes were prepared by addition of various metal precursors e.g. [Rh(PPh3)Cl] and [RhH(CO)(PPh3)3]. The first complex was used in the hydrogenation reaction of 1-pentene at 22°C and 1 atm. H2. After 24 h (50% conversion in 3 h) the reaction solution was filtered through a polyamide membrane [53] and the catalysts could be retained quantitatively in the membrane filtration cell. [54] The catalyst was recycled 5 times. Using the second complex, a hydroformylation reaction of 1-pentene was carried out. After 72 h the reaction mixture was filtered through a polyamide membrane and recycled twice. 

After a hydroformylation run, the reaction solution was subjected to ultrafiltration using an asymmetric polyethersulfone membrane (MWCO 50 kDa) supplied by Sartorius. A retention of 99.8% was found. When the catalyst solution was recycled, virtually the same catalytic activity was observed again (165 TO h 1). Repetitive recycling experiments resulted in 2-7% loss of rhodium, which was subscribed to partial oxidation of the phosphine ligand. 

The use of the sulfoxantphos ligand (compound (b) in Figure 7.8) in the biphasic hydroformylation of 1-octene with [BMIM][PF6] has been studied by Dupont and coworkers [58], The ligand allowed recycling of the catalyst solution up to four times with no loss in activity or selectivity. Flighly regioselective hydroformylation (n/iso = 13) was reported for a Rh/phosphine-ratio of 4 (100°C, 15 bar syngas pressure). 

Amphiphilic resin supported ruthenium(II) complexes similar to those displayed in structure 1 were employed as recyclable catalysts for dimethylformamide production from supercritical C02 itself [96]. Tertiary phosphines were attached to crosslinked polystyrene-poly(ethyleneglycol) graft copolymers (PS-PEG resin) with amino groups to form an immobilized chelating phosphine. In this case recycling was not particularly effective as catalytic activity declined with each subsequent cycle, probably due to oxidation of the phosphines and metal leaching.
