An efficient method for hydroformylation of aryl and enol trifluoromethanesulfonates is presented. Their reaction with carbon monoxide, trioctylsilane, and triethylamine in the presence of a catalytic amount of palladium acetate and 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)propane proceeds efficiently to provide a variety of aromatic and α,β-unsaturated aldehydes.
