G. Mink et L. Horvath, HYDROGENATION OF ANILINE TO CYCLOHEXYLAMINE ON NAOH-PROMOTED OR LANTHANA SUPPORTED NICKEL, Reaction kinetics and catalysis letters, 65(1), 1998, pp. 59-65
In the vapor phase, the selectivity of the title reaction could be inc
reased to about 90 % by promoting traditional type nickel catalysts wi
th NaOH. The use of strongly basic lanthana as support resulted in 95-
99 % selectivity.
