Hydrogen uses

Adams catalyst, platinum oxide, Pt02 H20. Produced by fusion of H2PtCl6 with sodium nitrate at 500-550 C and leaching of the cooled melt with water. Stable in air, activated by hydrogen. Used as a hydrogenation catalyst for converting alkenes to alkanes at low pressure and temperature. Often used on Si02...

Mixtures of CO—H2 produced from hydrocarbons, as shown in the first two of these reactions, ate called synthesis gas. Synthesis gas is a commercial intermediate from which a wide variety of chemicals are produced. A principal, and frequendy the only source of hydrogen used in refineries is a by-product of the catalytic reforming process for making octane-contributing components for gasoline (see Gasoline and OTHER MOTOR fuels), eg. 

High temperature steam reforming of natural gas accounts for 97% of the hydrogen used for ammonia synthesis in the United States. Hydrogen requirement for ammonia synthesis is about 336 m /t of ammonia produced for a typical 1000 t/d ammonia plant. The near-term demand for ammonia remains stagnant. Methanol production requires 560 m of hydrogen for each ton produced, based on a 2500-t/d methanol plant. Methanol demand is expected to increase in response to an increased use of the fuel—oxygenate methyl /-butyl ether (MTBE). 

Hydrogen use as a fuel in fuel cell appHcations is expected to increase. Fuel cells (qv) are devices which convert the chemical energy of a fuel and oxidant directiy into d-c electrical energy on a continuous basis, potentially approaching 100% efficiency. Large-scale (11 MW) phosphoric acid fuel cells have been commercially available since 1985 (276). Molten carbonate fuel cells (MCFCs) ate expected to be commercially available in the mid-1990s (277).

In the final step the dinitrile is formed from the anti-Markovrukov addition of hydrogen cyanide [74-90-8] at atmospheric pressure and 30—150°C in the hquid phase with a Ni(0) catalyst. The principal by-product, 2-methylglutaronitrile/4j5 j5 4-ti2-, when hydrogenated using a process similar to that for the conversion of ADN to hexamethylenediamine, produces 2-meth5i-l,5-pentanediamine or 2-methylpentamethylenediamine [15520-10-2] (MPMD), which is also used in the manufacture of polyamides as a comonomer. 

One of the important processes for manufacturing linalool is from the P-methylheptenone intermediate produced by the methods from petrochemical sources discussed earlier. For example, addition of sodium acetyUde to P-methylheptenone gives dehydrolinalool (4), which can be selectively hydrogenated, using a Lindlar catalyst, to produce linalool.

Reduction of the halogen substituent has been carried out by different procedures such as catalytic hydrogenation using palladium-carbon or Raney nickel, red phosphorus and hydroiodic acid, and zinc and sulfuric acid (66AHQ6)347). 3-Deuteropyrazole has been...

Some 14,700 gal of MTBE are produeed eaeh day. The MTBE produetion faeility relies on an Olefiex design system that eonverts isobutane to isobutylene, the basie ingredient in MTBE. The Olefiex unit manages to reeyele isobutane so that ultimately 100% is eonverted to isobutylene, and byproduet hydrogen used in the proeess is reeyeled and proeessed to 99.9% purity. 

In neutron reflectivity, neutrons strike the surface of a specimen at small angles and the percentage of neutrons reflected at the corresponding angle are measured. The an jular dependence of the reflectivity is related to the variation in concentration of a labeled component as a function of distance from the surface. Typically the component of interest is labeled with deuterium to provide mass contrast against hydrogen. Use of polarized neutrons permits the determination of the variation in the magnetic moment as a function of depth. In all cases the optical transform of the concentration profiles is obtained experimentally. 

These reactions may be used, respectively, to profile and N, using incident proton beams, or to profile hydrogen, using incident beams of and N. 

Depending on the stereoselectivity of the reaction, either the or the 5 configuration can generated at C-2 in the product. This corresponds to enantioselective synthesis of the d md L enantiomers of a-amino acids. Hydrogenation using chiral catalysts has been carefully investigated. The most effective catalysts for the reaction are ihodiiun... 

Phosphinamides are stable to catalytic hydrogenation, used to cleave benzyl-derived protective groups, and to hydrazine. The rate of hydrolysis of phosphinamides is a function of the steric and electronic factors around the phosphorus. This derivative has largely been used for the protection of amino acids and occurs few, if any, times in the general synthetic literature. 

The hydrogenation in the presence of Pd/G is also effective for the d compounds to amines. The Michael addition of nitromethime to 2-alkenoic esters followed by catalytic hydrogenation using 10% Pd/G in acetic acid md hydrolysis is a convenient method for the preparation of 3-alkyl-4-aminobut moic acids, which are importimt y-amino acids for biological snidy fEq. 6.48.
