Hydrogenation of citral to citronellol over Ni−Cr2O3

Modification of catalytic properties over carbon supported Ru–Cu and Ni–Cu bimetallics

“…With this we can conclude that as has been studied in the literature [45,46] Ni catalysts are in particular extremely selective for the production of citronellal which is subsequently hydrogenated to give citronellol. Due to its high selectivity towards citronellal very little modification can be observed on addition of a second metal.…”

The ferromagnetic–antiferromagnetic properties of Ni–Cr2O3composite hollow spheres prepared by an in situ reduction method

“…It is worth mentioning that, besides the prominent magnetic properties, both Ni and Cr 2 O 3 are well known as effective catalysts. Actually, the Ni-Cr 2 O 3 system has been studied as the catalyst in various types of reactions, such as the dehydrogenation of hydrocarbons, 19 hydrogenation of citral 20 and thymol, 21 deuterium exchange reactions for H 2 -NH 3 and H 2 -H 2 O, 22 and electrooxidation of ethanol. 23 It is well known that the properties of the composite mainly depend on those of the components.…”

Support Effects in Nerol Hydrogenation over Pt/SiO2, Pt/H-Y and Pt/H-MCM-41 Catalysts

“…In the catalytic hydrogenation selectivities of over 95% have been achieved in citral hydrogenation over Ni/Al 2 O 3 catalyst in ethanol [5]. Over Rh black [12] and Ni/Cr 2 O 3 [13] the maximum selectivities to C in citral hydrogenation of 95% and 80%, have been respectively achieved, however, under diffusion limitations. Citral hydrogenation was very selective to C over a bimetallic NiMo 12 catalyst in 2-propanol [14].…”
