Abstract:The selective synthesis of p-tert-butylcyclohexanol (PTBCHOL) from p-tert-butylphenol
(PTBP) via hydrogenation is an important catalytic system in fine
chemical synthesis. In this study, a bimetallic Ru–Ni@RGO nanocatalyst
was engineered and evaluated for its effectiveness in achieving high
selectivity and conversion rates. The Ru–Ni nanometals were
supported on reduced graphene oxide (RGO) using an in situ reduction
method, employing ethylene glycol as a green solvent and reducing
agent. By varying the amount… Show more
