Abstract

Rapid Synthesis of Unsaturated Alcohols under Mild Conditions by Highly Selective Hydrogenation. -Ir/ReOx supported on silica shows high activity and selectivity in the hydrogenation of unsaturated aldehydes (I) to the corresponding unsaturated alcohols (II) at a low H2 pressure and a low temperature. -(TAMURA, M.; TOKONAMI, K.; NAKAGAWA, Y.; TOMISHIGE*, K.; Chem.
