Colloid and Nanosized Catalysts in Organic Synthesis: IV. Reduction of Nitroarenes with Hydrazine Hydrate Catalyzed with Metal Nanoparticles

摘要

Reduction of a series of nitroarenes with hydrazine hydrate catalyzed with colloid iron, cobalt, nickel, and copper particles has been studied. High catalytic activity of nickel and iron nanoparticles has been demonstrated. Special features of nitrobenzene reduction in the presence of cobalt particles have been revealed.
