Rhodium(III)‐Catalyzed Dimerization of Aldehydes to Esters

- Summary
- Metrics

Abstract

No sooner said than done: A rhodi- um(III) hydride complex is an outstandingly effective and selective catalyst for the dimerization of aldehydes to the corresponding esters (see scheme). Evidence for an unusual mechanism in catalysis by rhodium is given.

The generous financial support from MICINN/FEDER (Project CTQ2008-03860) and G.A. (Gobierno de Aragón, Project: PM 036/2007) is gratefully recognized. V.P. thanks C.S.I.C. for an I3P postdoctoral contract.
