Organic synthesis in the aqueous solution is a very active field.
We synthesized amphiphilic ligands, which had phosphino alkyl group
as a hydrophilic part and PEG as a lipophilic part. In the presence
of the ligand and rhodium catalysts, hydroformylation of higher olefins
in the aqueous solution proceeded to giving the corresponding aldehydes
in good yields. The catalyst could be easily separated from products
and recycled efficiently.
