The major product of the following reaction is :
${CH}_{3} {CH}_{2} CH = {CH}_{2} \to_{Rh catalyst}^{H_{2} / CO}$

Question

The major product of the following reaction is : CH 3 CH 2 CH = CH 2 → Rh catalyst H 2 / CO

TestHub · Accepted Answer

OXO PROCESS (Hydroformylation) is the addition of a hydrogen atom and a formyl group to the molecule of a compound containing a double bond by reaction with hydrogen and carbon monoxide, the chief product being one or more aldehydes.

${CH}_{3} - {CH}_{2} - CH = {CH}_{2} \to_{Rh catalyst}^{H_{2} / CO} {CH}_{3} {CH}_{2} {CH}_{2} CHO$
