A carbon supported Pd catalyst is used in the liquid phase hydrogenation of the aromatic cyanohydrin mandelonitrile (CHCH(OH)CHCN) to afford the primary amine phenethylamine (CHCHCHNH). Employing a batch reactor, the desired primary amine is produced in 87% selectivity at reaction completion. Detection of the by-product 2-amino-1-phenylethanol (CHCH(OH)CHNH) accounts for the remaining 13% and closes the mass balance. The reaction mechanism is investigated, with a role for both hydrogenation and hydrogenolysis processes established.
一种碳负载的钯催化剂用于芳香族氰醇苯乙腈(CHCH(OH)CHCN)的液相加氢反应,以生成伯胺苯乙胺(CHCHCHNH)。采用间歇式反应器,在反应完成时以87%的选择性生成所需的伯胺。副产物2-氨基-1-苯乙醇(CHCH(OH)CHNH)的检测占剩余的13%,从而实现了质量平衡。对反应机理进行了研究,确定了氢化和氢解过程均起作用。
