Abstract:
Raney copper, which is doped (promoted) with an effective quantity of a doping (promoting) agent selected from the group boric acid, onium fluorides, salts of fluorine complex anions, and heteropoly acids, represents an outstanding oxidation catalyst for amine-group-containing primary amines to carboxylic acids.
Abstract:
Raney alloy catalysts applied to a support are described, said catalysts having an extremely thin layer of Raney alloy with a thickness of 0.01 to 100 nullm. These catalysts are prepared by vapor deposition of the appropriate metals under reduced pressure. They are generally suitable for all known hydrogenation and dehydrogenation reactions and are extremely abrasion-resistant.
Abstract:
Shaped Raney metal fixed-bed catalysts are doped with rhenium. Saturated or unsaturated esters are hydrogenated to their corresponding mono- or polyhydroxyalcohols.
