title: Aqueous-biphasic hydroformylation of higher alkenes promoted by alkylimidazolium salts.
abstract: Aqueous-biphasic hydroformylation of higher alkenes (>C5) can be greatly accelerated by addition of 1-octyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide without affecting the phase separation and with good catalyst retention in the aqueous phase.
