The fast and selective conversion of alkenes into aldehydes can be achieved under mild conditions by using the CO/H2O couple in the presence of the water-soluble complexes Rh2(µ-SBut)2(CO)2(Ls)2, Rh(cod)(Ls)2+(cod = cyclo-octa-1,5-diene), and RhH(CO)(Ls)3, where Ls is the trisulphonated phosphine, P(m-C6H4SO3Na).
