Palladium blacks borohydride reduction

Pd-C in both ethanol and DMF, little, if any, selectivity was obtained product ratios were 50 50 in ethanol and 60 40 in DMF. Palladium black in ethanol, which afforded 4-amino-5-nitroveratrole in 70-75% yield from 4,5-dinitroveratrole, provided no selectivity with 2,4-dinitroaniline, as well as with o- and m-dinitrobenzenes both nitro groups were hydrogenated.140 Reduction by sodium borohydride and Pd-C in methanol also does not appear to be selective, as 1,2,4-triaminobenzene is formed.141 It is of interest that over Pt-C in acidic alcohol 2,4-dinitroaniline is selectively hydrogenated at the 4-nitro group to give 4-amino-2-nitroaniline in 70% yield.142... [Pg.350]

The treatment of solutions of platinum metals with aqueous borohydride results in the formation of finely divided black precipitates that are active catalysts for alkene hydrogenations. The platinum black obtained in this way was twice as active as that obtained by the hydrogenation of platinum oxide. The borohydride reduced rhodium black is even more active. While the borohydride reduction of base metals gives the corresponding metal borides, there is little, if any, boron incorporated into these platinum metal blacks. Analysis of the borohydride reduced palladium found that while the palladium boron ratio in the bulk was 10 1, less than 1% of the surface was boron.59 7, 5 small amount of boron, however, can impart a significant difference in catalytic activity to this catalyst as compared with other, more common, palladium catalysts. The most striking difference is the inability of the borohydride reduced palladium to promote the hydrogenolysis of activated C-0 and C-N bonds, a reaction that takes place readily over standard palladium catalysts. [Pg.240]

Borohydride-reduced palladium. Reduction of palladium chloride in methanol with sodium borohydride until evolution of a gas ceases leads to a black material, which is not particularly sensitive to air and is not pyrophoric. The material is useful for selective hydrogenations. It catalyzes rapid hydrogenation of bonds of the type C=C, N=N, and N=0, but not the type C=N and C=0. Nohydrogenolysisof nitrogen or oxygen functions is observed in alcohols, amines, amides, esters, ethers, or lactones. Epoxides are opened to alcohols very slowly. [Pg.446]
