Process for the direct conversion of alkenes to carboxylic acids.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . Process comprising the process steps of: a) addition of an alkene; b) addition of a complex, comprising a compound according to structure ( 1 ) and also Pd, or a compound according to structure ( 1 ) and a substance comprising Pd c) feeding in CO; d) heating the reaction mixture such that the alkene is converted to a carboxylic acid, wherein the alkene is directly converted to the carboxylic acid. 2 . Process according to claim 1 , wherein the substance in process step b) is selected from: PdCl 2 , PdBr 2 , Pd(acac) 2 , Pd(dba) 2 (dba=dibenzylideneacetone), PdCl 2 (CH 3 CN) 2 . 3 . Process according to claim 1 , wherein the process comprises the additional process step e): e) addition of acetic acid. 4 . Process according to claim 1 , wherein the process comprises additional process step f): f) addition of water. 5 . Process according to claim 1 , wherein the process comprises the additional process step g): g) addition of p-toluenesulfonic acid. 6 . Process according to claim 1 , wherein the reaction mixture is heated to a temperature in the range from 80° C. to 160° C. in process step d). 7 . Process according to claim 1 , wherein the CO is fed in in process step c) such that the reaction proceeds under a CO pressure in the range from 20 bar to 60 bar,
