Abstract Homogeneous catalysis is an efficient tool to carry out hydrogenation processes but the major drawback is represented by the separation of the expensive catalyst from the product mixture. In this view we prepared a polyester-based Pd catalytic system that offers the advantages of both homogenous and heterogeneous catalyses: efficacy, selectivity and recyclability. Here its application in the hydrogenation of selected α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds is described.

Water soluble complexes derived from the interaction between Rh(CO)2(acac) and [Ir(COD)Cl]2, respectively, with human serum albumin (HSA), were employed in the aqueous biphasic hydrogenation of α,β-unsaturated compounds as 2-cyclohexen-1-one (I), 2-butenal (V), 3-phenyl-2-propenal (IX) and 3-aryl-2-methyl-2-propenals (XIII and XVII). Both catalytic systems Rh/HSA and Ir/HSA showed to be very active in the hydrogenation of ketone I even at low temperature and hydrogen pressure; in particular, the rhodium based catalyst showed to be very selective affording exclusively cyclohexanone (II). The α,β-unsaturated aldehydes investigated required higher temperature (up to 60 °C) and pressure (5 MPa) to obtain good conversions. In this case Rh/HSA resulted to be more active than Ir based catalyst. In all cases both Rh/HSA and Ir/HSA were easily recycled without significant loss of activity.
