Ag/SiO_2:a novel catalyst with high activity and selectivity for hydrogenation of chloronitrobenzenes

摘要

Ag/SiO_2 prepared by an in situ reduction method are found,for the first time,to be highly effective and recyclable catalysts for the selective hydrogenation of a range of chloronitrobenzes to their corresponding chloroanilines,which are of great potential as industrially viable and cheap novel catalysts for the production of chloroanilines.
