title: The promoting effect of a dicyanamide based ionic liquid in the selective hydrogenation of citral.
abstract: Conventional supported heterogeneous palladium catalysts in combination with a dicyanamide based ionic liquid are highly active with excellent selectivity in enabling the one-pot synthesis of citronellal through citral hydrogenation.
