Colloid and nanosized catalysts in organic synthesis: XVII. Reductive amination of carbonitriles in the presence of supported nickel nanoparticles

详细

Reductive amination of carbonitriles catalyzed by nickel nanoparticles applied onto a solid support in a plug flow reactor in the gas phase or the gas–liquid–solid catalyst system occurs at atmospheric pressure of hydrogen affording the nonsymmetrical secondary or tertiary amines. The effect of the support type on the target product yield and conversion of the substrate has been studied.
