Selective hydrogenation of anisol to cyclohexyl methyl ether in 100% y
ield has been achieved by a new natural polymer catalyst, silica-suppo
rted carboxymethyl cellulose-platinum complex (SiO2-CMC-Pt) at 30 degr
ees C and 1 atm mild reaction conditions. The COO/Pt ratio, temperatur
e and solvent had great influence on the reaction. The catalyst was st
able during the reaction, its catalytic properties were little changed
after being reused 4 times.
