The catalytic activity of Sn-Beta zeolite in the Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley (MPV) reduction of carbonyl compounds with secondary alcohols was performed with quantitative yields to the corresponding alcohol. This heterogeneous catalyst exhibits activities and selectivities not observed before with other Me-zeolites.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
