Carbonylation of methanol in supercritical CO2 catalysed by a supported rhodium complex

Abstract

A rhodium complex supported on polyvinylpyrrolidone catalyses the carbonylation of methanol to methyl ethanoate and ethanoic acid in supercritical CO2 at rates up to ca. 50% those in liquid solution but with minimal catalyst leaching.
