Colloidal and nanosized catalysts in organic synthesis: XV. Gas-phase hydrogenation of alkenes catalyzed by supported nickel nanoparticles

详细

Gas-phase hydrogenation of alkenes and their derivatives, catalyzed by nickel nanoparticles supported on zeolite or silica gel support occurs at 150–250°С and an atmospheric hydrogen pressure and results in a high conversion. The selectivity of the hydrogenation depends on the amount of hydrogen: at a low diene (triene)–hydrogen ratio, selective hydrogenation of one multiple bond in the substrate is possible.
