hüdroformüülimisel
Hydroformylation, also known as the oxo process, is a chemical process that involves the addition of a formyl group and a hydrogen atom to an alkene. This reaction typically produces aldehydes. The general reaction can be represented as: R-CH=CH2 + CO + H2 -> R-CH2-CH2-CHO. The process is catalyzed by transition metal complexes, most commonly cobalt or rhodium based catalysts.
The hydroformylation reaction is highly significant in the chemical industry as it is a major route to
The choice of catalyst is crucial in determining the efficiency and selectivity of the hydroformylation reaction.
