Abstract

Abstract The hydroformylation of olefinic hydrocarbons is effected by treating the hydrocarbon with hydrogen and carbon monoxide in the presence of a catalyst comprising an ion exchange resin and an organic linking compound having at least one resin-compatible moiety ionically bonded to said resin and further having at least one metal complexible moiety selected from the group consisting of cobalt, ruthenium, palladium, platinum and rhodium.
