Homogeneous rhodium catalysed hydrocarbonylation reactions of alkenes

The conversion of ethene, carbon monoxide and water to propanoic acid by the catalytic action of various rhodium species, was investigated by infra-red spectroscopy and autoclave batch reactions. Utilisation of a high pressure infra-red cell and a Fourier Transform infra-red spectrometry enabled stu...
