Hydroformylation of triglycerides in a self-emulsifying medium

摘要

The invention relates to a method for the hydroformnylation of triglycerides by homogeneous catalysis in the presence of at least one substituted cyclodextrin, said method comprising a step a) of combining, under agitation, at least one catalyst, waiter, at least one unsaturated triglyceride and said substituted cyclodextrin, in the presence of gaseous hydrogen and carbon monoxide, said step being carried out in reactive conditions allowing the formation of an emulsion during the agitation and a decanting of the products once the agitation has stopped.

主权项

1. A process for the hydroformylation of triglycerides by homogeneous catalysis in the presence of at least one substituted cyclodextrin, the process comprising:
a step a) of bringing together, with stirring, at least one catalyst, water, at least one unsaturated triglyceride and the substituted cyclodextrin, in the presence of hydrogen gas and of carbon monoxide; and wherein the step is carried out under reaction conditions allowing the formation of an emulsion during the stirring and decanting of the reaction products once the stirring has stopped.
