Development of highly efficient and selective palladium catalysts for telomerization of 1,3-butadiene with alcohols

Abstract

Novel phosphine ligands based on (benzo)furylphosphines, enable the efficient palladium-catalyzed telomerization of 1,3-butadiene with methanol. The synthesis of industrially relevant 1-methoxy-2,7-octadiene (1-MODE) occurs in quantitative yields and excellent productivity (TON = 95.000), even at ambient temperatures.
