Abstract: | Progress in organometallic catalysis began with the discovery of the Roelen reaction (hydroformylation with carbon monoxide and hydrogen) in 1938 and the Reppe reaction (hydrocarboxylation with carbon monoxide and water) in 1939. Since then, carbonylation chemistry by using carbon monoxide has occupied a central position in organometallic chemistry, as it relates to organic synthesis. There is, however, the problem of using gaseous carbon monoxide (a toxic greenhouse gas) in this chemistry. Recently, some strategies that address this issue have appeared. This minireview describes carbonylation reactions that can be conducted without the direct use of carbon monoxide. These carbonylation reactions provide reliable and accessible tools for synthetic organic chemists. |
