The first synthesis of a water-soluble cationic sugar-substituted arene rhodium complex has been described. The w Ε½ . x water-soluble cationic rhodium complex was synthesized by the reaction of an ethanol solution of Rh COD Cl with 2 AgBF and then with phenyl-b-D-glucopyranoside. This water-soluble

β¦ Synopsis
The rhodium thiopyrimidine complex [Rh(SPymMe 2 )(CO) 2 ] was tethered to chemically modified SiO 2 substrates and tested as a catalyst in the hydroformylation reaction of 1-heptene. Catalytic performance was monitored under different reaction conditions for several cycles, and compared with the catalytic behaviour of the Rh thiolate complex in a homogeneous medium. Anchoring of the rhodium complex to the modified SiO 2 surface was performed by displacement of a CO ligand of the rhodium complex by a PR 3 group, following a reaction pathway previously described for gem-dicarbonilic complexes. The XPS data revealed that the sulphur atom is released from the external surface of the solid catalyst during the hydroformylation reaction. However, the thiolate complex is still present in the inner pore network of the solid after the hydroformylation reaction.
