Ultrasonics in chemoselective heterogeneous metal catalysis sonochemical hydrogenation of unsaturated carbonyl compounds over platinum catalysts.
The hydrogenation of unsaturated aldehydes was studied over ultrasonically pretreated silica supported platinum catalyst. In the hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde a remarkable reaction rate and cinnamyl alcohol selectivity increase was observed. Using other unsaturated aldehydes the reaction rate and unsaturated alcohol selectivity increased moderately.
