PROCEDIMENTO PER IL RICUPERO DI SISTEMI CATALITICI DA GREZZI DI IDROFORMILAZIONE

摘要

Complexes of transition metals with organic ligands are recovered from raw reaction products containing the complexes, and in particular such complexes of rhodium with tertiary phosphines are recovered from raw hydroformylation products. The raw hydroformylation product (or if such product is subjected to distillation, the tails of the distillation) are treated with an aqueous solution of an aldehyde having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms and of a strong acid and the solid rhodium complex thus formed is separated by filtration.
