Abstract

Dilute EXAFS characterisation has been used to elucidate species involved during the course of the 3 mM Rh-catalysed hydroformylation of oct-1-ene in scCO2; significant metal clustering occurs with a Rh:P ratio of 1:1 but at a 1:3 ratio, metal clustering is not detected, with the presence of monomer species only.
