Abstract:In water, Al powder becomes a powerful reducing agent, transforming in cyclohexyl either one or both benzene rings of aromatic compounds such as biphenyl, fluorene and 9,10-dihydroanthracene under mild reaction conditions in the presence of noble metal catalysts, such as Pd/C, Rh/C, Pt/C, or Ru/C. The reaction is carried out in a sealed tube, without the use of any organic solvent, at low temperature. Partial aromatic ring reduction was observed when using Pd/C, the reaction conditions being 24 h and 60 °C. The complete reduction process of both aromatic rings required 12 h and 80 °C with Al powder in the presence of Pt/C.
Keywords:Reduction of aromatic compounds  Al powder  Noble metal catalysts  Water  Cyclohexane ring
