ABSTRACT:
A process for the selective hydrocarboxylation of propylene to produce predominantly isobutyric acid in the liquid phase is provided. The reaction of propylene, carbon monoxide and water is effected at a temperature of about 75.degree. C. to about 150.degree. C. and at a pressure of about 250 psi to about 5000 psi in the presence of a suitable solvent and a catalyst comprising palladium or a palladium compound, a phosphoamine promoter ligand compound and a hydrogen halide.
