Description: The most
comprehensive reference in the field, Handbook of Heterogeneous Catalytic
Hydrogenation for Organic Synthesis provides synthetic chemists and chemical
engineers in fine chemicals and pharmaceuticals with detailed experimental
guidelines for heterogeneous catalytic hydrogenation. Organized by functional
groups for ready reference and featuring detailed examples of hundreds of
reactions, this handbook covers hydrogenations of alkenes, alkynes, aldehydes
and ketones, nitriles, imines, nitro and nitroso compounds, carboxylic acids
and esters, and aromatic and heterocyclic compounds. In addition, coverage
includes the preparation of amines by reductive alkylation and the
hydrogenolysis of a variety of compounds. Examples of hydrogenation of
functional groups and reaction pathways are illustrated with numerous equations
and schemes.
Practitioners
will appreciate the plenitude of experimental details given for most of the
reactions selected, including amounts of reagents and catalysts, reaction
temperatures, hydrogen pressures, and reaction times. They will also find
helpful the more than one hundred tables included throughout the book detailing
the effects of key factors governing rate and selectivity, such as compound
structure, the nature of catalysts and supports, and the nature of solvents.
Researchers will benefit from the introductory chapters covering an array of
hydrogenation catalysts, including nickel, cobalt, copper, iron, platinum group
metals, rhenium, and other oxide and sulfide catalysts, as well as reactors and
reaction conditions.
