In a 50 ml autoclave were charged 38.7 mg (0.0488 mmol) of (S,R)-biphemphos, 3.1 mg (0.012 mmol) of Rh(acac)(CO)2, and a solution of 1250 mg (12.0 mmol) of styrene in 2.4 ml of benzene, and hydrogen and carbon monoxide were fed thereto each to a partial pressure of 50 atm. The mixture was stirred at 60° C. for 42 hours. A conversion of the starting olefin and an aldehyde production ratio were determined by 1H-NMR (internal standard: diphenylmethane) analysis, and an optical purity (enantiomer excess) was determined by GLC analysis after conversion of the resulting optically active aldehyde into the corresponding carboxylic acid by Jones oxidation. As a result, the conversion of styrene was 100%, and the 2-phenylpropanal/3-phenylpropanal production ratio was 9:1. The 2-phenylpropanal produced had an optical purity of (S)-(+)-2-phenylpropanal of 94% ee.
