Catalyst type and concentration dependence in catalytic transfer hydrogenolysis of α,β-unsaturated carbonyls and nitriles via ammonium formate

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/00397919208021668

The catalytic reduction of a variety of α,β-unsaturated compounds into saturated analogs in the presence of other reducible moieties is described using ammonium formate as a hydrogen source. The rate dependence on the concentration of Pd-C catalyst as well as on 5% Pd-BaSO₄ and Ra-Ni are also characterized.
