A process for the carbonylation of an olefin with carbon monoxide in the presence of water, an alcohol, and/or a carboxylic acid, the reaction being conducted in the presence of an essentially halide-free palladium catalyst and a tri-organophosphine and in the absence of sodium acetate, the tri-organophosphine containing at least one aliphatic carbon atom bound to phosphorus and the molar ratio of the organophosphine to palladium being less than 10:1. |
