Which step, taken from the catalytic cycle, is an example of reductive elimination? Conversion of Rh(CO)2(PPh3)2(CH2CH2R) to Rh(CO)2PPh3)2(COCH2CH2R) Reaction of Rh(CO)2PPh3)2(CH2CH2R) with H2 Loss of RCH2CH3 from Rh(H)2(CO)PPh3)2(CH2CH2R) Loss of RCH-CHR from PdCl(PPh3)2(CH2CH2R) and formation of Pd(H)Cl(PPh3)2.

Consider the transformation of an alkyl bromide to an aldehyde shown below: 1-bromobutane → pentanal + HBr Assume that the reaction is catalyzed by HFe(CO)4⁻ in an atmosphere rich in CO and H2. Propose a catalytic cycle that would show this catalysis and account for the formation the two products. Label each step in you cycle with terms corresponding to the fundamental reaction types.
