Abstract

The palladium-catalyzed hydroesterification of olefins occurs efficiently in a range of ionic liquid media. Selectivities ranging from 5–7:1 for the linear ester were obtained with styrene in a range of IL solvents. The use of ILs allowed the catalyst to be easily separated from the organic product by either extraction or distillation. The (Ph 3P) 2PdCl 2 precatalyst could be recovered unchanged from the ionic liquid phase. The IL/catalyst phase could be recycled five times with an average yield of 68%.
