Abstract
A study has been made of the catalytic activities of various ruthenium complexes in the synthesis of ketones from olefin-carbon monoxide mixtures and an alcohol as source of hydrogen: major side products were shown to be the alkyl propionates and ethane. The effects of base, concentration of catalyst (for RuCl3- and Ru3(CO)12- based systems), pressure, temperature, CO/olefin ratio and the water content of the alcohol have been examined.
