Pedersen, S. K., Gudmundsson, H. G., Nielsen, D. U., Donslund, B. S., Hammershøj, H. C. D., Daasbjerg, K. & Skrydstrup, T. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41929-020-00510-z Industrially, aldehydes are produced annually on a multimillion-tonne scale via the hydroformylation of olefins with syngas (CO/H2 mixture). Nonetheless, this transformation has not found frequent use in the laboratory. Here we report on a simple…
