Abstract
The exceptionally outstanding physical and chemical properties as well as
unique morphology of graphene have led to the development of various graphenebased
catalysts, which are highly effective and selective in the reduction and
hydrogenation reactions of organic compounds. This chapter is dedicated to
compilation of the versatile reactions of hydrogenation/reduction over graphene-based
catalysts. The use of catalyst allows highly effective and selective reduction of
substrates in an effortless, recyclable, constructible and environmentally benign
system.
Keywords: Eco-friendly, Graphene, Hydrogenation, Nanocomposites, Reduction, Solid support.
