A Recyclable Heterogeneous Palladium Catalyst Anchored to Modified Metal-Organic Framework for Hydrogenation of Styrene Oxide

详细

A heterogeneous palladium(II) catalyst anchored to modified metal-organic framework has been synthesized and characterized. The performance of the catalyst has been tested for the hydrogenation of styrene oxide at ambient temperature and pressure. The catalyst showed an excellent activity and selectivity for the preparation of 2-phenylethanol from styrene oxide with 100% conversion and 98% selectivity. The catalyst is very stable and easily recyclable for several times without loss of activity.
