Abstract
The coordination chemistry of hexacationic Dendriphos ligands L* with respect to Rh(I), as well as their application in Rh-catalyzed hydroformylation reactions, is described. Complexes of the type RhCl(CO)(L*)2 were synthesized and characterized. The results show that Dendriphos ligands are weaker r-donors and/or stronger p-acceptors compared to PPh3. The reaction of
