Abstract
The hydrogenation of 5,5-dimethyl-2-phenyl-[1,3]dioxane to 3-benzyloxy -2,2-dimethyl-propan-1-ol has been investigated within the temperature range from 150 degrees C to 220 degrees C over copper-loaded catalyst s. Under elevated pressure in a continuous flow reactor, good results have been obtained using the catalyst system Cu/H-[B]-silicalite-1. Th e results have been compared to those obtained over two catalyst syste ms known in the literature, i.e. nickel oxide on silica and copper chr omite.
