Abstract

Olefins are converted to alcohols by a one-step, hydroformylation process comprising contacting an olefin, such as 1-hexene, with a gaseous mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst prepared by loading a bimetallic cluster of the formula: Rh.sub.x Co.sub.y CO.sub.12 wherein both x and y are independently integers 1-3 with the proviso that .SIGMA.(x+y)=4, onto an amine resin, such as Dowex.RTM. MWA-1.
