The Application and Progress of Rhodium Catalyst in the Carbonyl Synthesis

The research and development of rhodium catalysts promoted the progress of olefin carbonyl synthesis industry.This paper reviews the research progress of rhodium catalysts in recent years,which including the development of efficient phosphine ligands and the design and synthesis of aqueous/organic biphasic rhodium catalysts.The biphasic rhodium catalysts include water-soluble rhodium catalyst and supported rhodium catalyst.And the application of rhodium-phosphine catalysts in industry is also mentioned.
