The 2-electron reduced form of the polyoxometalate silicotungstic acid (H[SiWO]) is shown to be an effective and selective hydrogenation agent for a range of nitroarenes without the need for any co-catalyst. The ease of generation of the active species and its recyclability suggest that a new approach to this important class of chemical conversions is possible.
多金属氧酸盐硅钨酸（H[SiWO]）的双电子还原形式被证明是一系列硝基芳烃的有效且选择性氢化剂，无需任何助催化剂。活性物种易于生成及其可循环性表明，对于这一重要类别的化学转化，有可能采用一种新方法。
