title: Efficient and chemoselective reduction of carbonyl compounds with supported gold catalysts under transfer hydrogenation conditions.
abstract: A new heterogeneous catalytic transfer hydrogenation (CTH) system, consisting of a non-flammable supported Au catalyst along with 2-propanol as the hydrogen donor, was proven to be effective for chemoselective reduction of a wide range of aromatic ketones and aldehydes to the corresponding alcohols.
