Nanocatalysis for Reduction/Hydrogenation Reactions

Heterogeneous nanocatalyst demonstrate excellent catalytic activity for the

hydrogenation/reduction of nitro-aromatics, carbonyls, alkenes/alkynes in the presence

of different reductants such as NaBH4 and H2 using various solvents such as ethanol,

methanol, dioxane, THF, and water, as green solvents. Earth-abundant coordinating

elements such as Pd, Pt, Fe, Cu, Co, Ag, Au, and Ni, elementary synthesis, short time

reactions, high selectivity, mild reaction conditions, and reusability of nanocatalyst for

at least 4-5 cycles without any loss in catalytic activity, are some priorities for the

hydrogenation reactions using nanocatalyst.

Keywords: Alkenes, Alkynes, Bimetallic, Carbonyls, Hydrogenation, Nanocatalyst, Nitro aromatics, Reducing agents, Reduction.
