About this document
Catalytic Reduction of Nitrobenzene by Ognian Dimitrov is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document describes catalytic reductions using hydrazine. It finds that hydrazine reduces esters of nitric and nitrous acid and nitro compounds to alcohols or amines at room temperature in the presence of a palladium or platinum catalyst. Reactions of hexyl nitrate, nitrobenzene, and m-dinitrobenzene are presented, yielding hexyl alcohol, aniline, and m-nitroaniline respectively. The gas produced contains nitrous oxide but no ammonia or other nitrogen oxides. Methane and ethane are also produced from th
