Kv. Swamy et al., HYDROGENATION KINETICS AND MECHANISM OF STILBENE, CINNAMALDEHYDE AND CINNAMIC ACID BY ANCHORED MONTMORILLONITEBIPYRIDINEPALLADIUM(II)ACETATE, Indian journal of chemistry. Sect. A: Inorganic, physical, theoretical & analytical, 36(1), 1997, pp. 102-104
Hydrogenation of olefinic compounds catalysed by anchored catalysts is
of current interest. A detailed kinetic study of the hydrogenation of
some olefinic compounds over anchored montmorillonitebipyridine-palla
dium(II) acetate catalyst which belongs to a new generation catalytic
system is presented. The effects of substrate concentration, partial p
ressure of hydrogen, catalyst concentration, solvent and temperature h
ave been studied. Based on the results a mechanism is proposed, rate l
aw derived and the corresponding thermodynamic parameters have been ev
aluated. Product analysis is confirmed by H-NMR, LW and GLC.
