  • Ratio can only be achieved in practice by complex multi-stage reaction.

  • Keim and Becker The addition of methyl formate to butadiene in the presence of PdCl 2 and HC1 is described in Keim and Becker (Journal of Molecular Catalysis 54, 1989, pages 95-101). Keim and Becker only achieved an unsatisfactory yield on pentenoic acid ester of 10-15% at a CO pressure of 80 bar. Only moderate selectivities can be achieved with this catalyst system. In addition, the handling and recycling of HC1 is also very problematic. It is therefore an object of the invention to provide a process for the preparation of 3-alkenyl acid esters which can be carried out without solvent or in which only the starting materials act as solvents, which makes the addition of HC1 unnecessary and which has a higher selectivity than the known processes . Furthermore, the process should also be able to be carried out at lower pressures than previously known processes.

  • the CO required to build up the CO support pressure can be obtained by decomposing an alkyl formate how methyl formate is provided, especially since the required minimum CO partial pressure of 10 bar (IMPa) is very low. CO partial pressures from 10 to 150 bar, preferably from 15 to 100 bar, are preferred.

  • Comparative Examples 1 and 2 show that with PdCl 2 alone as a catalyst, significant amounts of product of value can only be obtained in the presence of large amounts of alcohol. Yield and selectivity are, however, significantly lower than in the examples according to the invention.
  • a comparison of comparative examples 7 and 9 with example 8 according to the invention shows that the catalyst according to the invention enables higher yields and selectivities than the known combination of HC1 with PdCl 2 .
  • Examples 13 and 14 show the influence of the alcohol corresponding to the formate (here methanol, MeOH) on the activity of the catalysts according to the invention: small amounts, as are present in commercially available alkyl formates, do not interfere, larger amounts of the alcohol have an inhibiting effect.
  • Comparative example 15 shows that the catalysts according to the invention have no activity in the carbonylation of dienes, as would have been expected if MeFo were cleaved back into MeOH and CO.
  • Comparative Example 16 illustrates the inhibitory effect of basic organic compounds containing nitrogen or phosphorus. Table:
