Conclusions
-
1.
Zeolite RhNaX is an active catalyst for the carbonylation of alkyl iodides in media containing aliphatic alcohols into esters of the corresponding carboxylic acids at 200 to 250°C and a CO pressure of 1 to 100 atm.
-
2.
Increasing the CO pressure to 100 atm sharply increases the rate of the carbonylation and suppresses the secondary reactions.
-
3.
The reactivity of iodoalkanes decreases as their molecular weight is increased.
