title: High regioselectivity in propylene hydroformylation using rhodium-bisphosphite catalysts is due to properties of the SRS diastereomer.
abstract: The large cone angle and bite angle of the SRS ligand diastereomer in biphenol-based Rh-bisphosphite catalysts lead to high linear regioselectivity in the hydroformylation of propylene.
