Abstract:
A supercritical oxidation process carried out in water is capable of oxidizing “organics” in precious metal organic compositions such as heterogeneous (Pt/C) or homogeneous precious metal catalysts and producing a precious metal oxide with few by-products and low losses of precious metal.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to methods for the reductive amination of a carbonyl-containing compound. R1R2CO where R1 and R2 are either H, alkyl, aryl or heterocyclic etc with an amine NHR3R4 where R3 and R4 arm H, alkyl, aryl, or heterocyclic in the presence of a homogeneous iridium catalyst and gaseous hydrogen.
