“…In terms of the selective hydrogenation of quinoline bearing methyl or methoxy substituents, precious metal-based heterogeneous catalysts such as Pd [19][20][21][22][23][24][25], Pt [26,27], Ru [28][29][30][31][32], Ir [33], and Rh [34] have received a large amount of interest due to their excellent activity and selectivity. However, the selectivity is not satisfactory for functionalized quinoline compounds bearing easily reducible groups, such as alkenes, ketones, nitriles, aldehydes, amines, and halogens [35,36]. By careful selection of the support, modifying the properties of the support or the fabrication unique catalyst structures, Pd [24,37], Pt [38], Ru [39,40], Ir [41], and Rh-based [42] catalysts have been transformed into chemoselective catalysts.…”
