Modern Solvents in Organic Synthesis

Abstract

Water can be used very advantageously as the solvent in homogeneous catalytic reactions and thus gives rise to a specific class of aqueous biphasic reactions among two-phase reactions. This new use of water has two very positive consequences: an advantageous effect on the selectivity of the homogeneous catalytic reactions and the opportunity, for the first time, to “immobilize” the homogeneous catalyst by means of the “liquid support” water, then to separate it simply and immediately from the reaction products after its task is complete and thus to return it to the catalysis cycle. Apart from the industrial use of hydroformylation (oxo process), fine chemicals are also being increasingly prepared by the aqueous, homogeneously catalyzed biphasic technique.
