Hydrogenation of Alkenes
The most commonly used catalyst is the Wilkinson’s Catalyst
Many alkenes are hydrogenated with hydrogen at 1atm pressure or less
Wilkinson’s catalyst is highly sensitive to the nature of the phosphine ligand and the
Many alkenes are hydrogenated with hydrogen at 1atm pressure or less.
Wilkinson s catalyst is highly sensitive to the nature of the phosphine ligand and thealkene substrate.
Analogous catalysts with alkyl phosphine ligands are inactive
Highly hindered alkenes and ethylene are not hydrogenated by the catalyst

Both cobalt and rhodium complexes are used as catalysts.
Alk i i ti lk h d ti d f ti f b h d ld h dAlkene isomerization, alkene hydrogenation and formation of branched aldehydes arethe possible side reactions.
Cobalt catalysts operate at 150 ºC and 250 atm, whereas Rhodium catalysts operate atmoderate temperatures and 1 atm.Rhodium catalysts promotes the formation of linear aldehydes. Cobalt catalysts do so ifmodified with alkylphosphine ligands.

Monsanto Acetic Acid Synthesis
All three members of the group 9 (Co, Rh and Ir) can catalyze this reaction.g p ( , ) yA cobalt complex was initially used, which was replaced with the rhodium complexlater on.
Methanol initially reacts with hydroiodic acid to give methyliodide and H2O.Methyliodide reacts with the 16e- catalyst, which forms the rate-determining step.
The final product formed after the catalytic cycle is acetyl iodide, which is hydrolyzedb ater to acetic acid and HIby water to acetic acid and HI.

Alkene Polymerization
If only a few monomers couple together, the short chains formed are called oligomers.

Alkene Polymerization
The commonly used catalyst has a tetrahydrofuran molecule occupying the fourthcoordination site of zirconium.
Ziegler-Natta Catalyst
Karl Ziegler in 1953, discovered a catalyst based on TiCl3 and AlCl3 for thepolymerization of ethylene.Giulio Natta extended the method for the polymerization of other olefins like propylene
d d b f diff t i tiand made a number of different variations.The Ziegler-Natta catalyst family includes halides of titanium, chromium, vanadiumand zirconium, typically activated by aluminum halide compounds.
Ziegler and Natta received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in the year 1963.
