Abstract

A recyclable rhodium polyether diphosphinite complex anchored in polyethylene glycol [RhPEGD] was studied for hydroaminomethylation of various olefins with primary and secondary amines. The protocol was optimized with respect to various reaction parameters and the general applicability of catalyst for hydroaminomethylation of different functionalized olefins with corresponding amines was investigated. During the course of reaction, catalyst was soluble with reactants/products while could be quantitatively separated from reaction media in biphasic form by addition of anti-solvent on completion of reaction. The catalyst exhibited remarkable activity and was subsequently recycled up to five consecutive cycles.
