Carbon dioxide hydrogenation on macromolecular rhodium and ruthenium complexes
A number of heterogenous ruthenium and rhodium catalysts were prepared using hybrid supports containing poly(ethylene oxide). Their activity in the carbon dioxide hydrogenation reaction was studied in a water-diethylamine medium. It was shown that the catalysts obtained using triphenylphosphine and poly(ethylene oxide) endcapped with diphenylphosphine in the preparation of a support have a high activity and can be used repeatedly.
