Abstract
Catalytic hydrodechlorination of chlorobenzene (CB) was carried out in the liquid phase in a mixture of methanol/water (MeOH/H2O) at 30 degrees C and 2 kg/cm(2) pressure. The reaction orders with respect to CB and H-2 pressur e were one and zero, respectively. Addition of NH4OH in the reaction produc es a decrease in the activity (TOF). Solvent effect shows the following ord er of activity: H2O > MeOH/H2O > EtOH/H2O > MeOH.
