Catalytic transfer hydrogenation of unsaturated ketones and imides via ammonium formate

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/00397919809458700

Ammonium formate in acetic acid in presence of Pd-C catalyst efficiently converts open chain α,β-unsaturated ketones and cyclic enones to their saturated ketone analogues. The system converts enimides to saturated imides. An unsaturated non-conjugated cyc
