Abstract:
Un método para reducir un compuesto orgánico que contiene un grupo epoxi con hidrógeno, que comprende (1) poner en contacto un catalizador de níquel con una substancia básica para formar un catalizador de níquel que soporta substancia básica; (2) poner en contacto un compuesto orgánico cicloalifático saturado o insaturado que contiene un grupo epoxi, que tiene de 5 a 20 átomos de carbono, con hidrógeno en presencia del catalizador de níquel que soporta substancia básica, para reducir el compuesto orgánico cicloalifático saturado o insaturado que contiene un grupo epoxi, caracterizado porque antes de la etapa de reacción de reducción (2), el catalizador de níquel que soporta substancia básica se pretrata con hidrógeno para reducir el catalizador de níquel que soporta substancia básica.
Abstract:
In reduction of an epoxy group-containing organic compound, for example, a C5-C20 saturated or unsaturated epoxy cycloaliphatic compound, in the presence of a nickel catalyst, by bringing the compound into contact with hydrogen, the target compound can be produced at a high yield by adding a basic substance (for example, an alkali metal hydroxide, an alkali metal carbonate, an alkali metal alkoxide, and an amine compound having 1 to 3 C1-C12 alkyl groups), to the reduction reaction system, to thereby restrict production of by-products due to a side deoxidation reaction.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for producing a cycloalkanol and a cycloalkanone by converting a saturated or unsaturated 6-12C cyclic hydrocarbon having an epoxy group (hereafter, called as an epoxycycloalkane) by contacting with hydrogen in the presence of a nickel catalyst, wherein, even if catalytic reaction is repeated, hydrocarbon byproducts such as cycloalkenes, cycloalkadienes and cycloalkatrienes do not increase and the cycloalkanol and the cycloalkanone are produced in high yield, i.e., the nickel catalyst can be long-lived. SOLUTION: This method for producing a cycloalkanol and a cycloalkanone comprises contacting an epoxycycloalkane with hydrogen in the presence of a nickel catalyst and is characterized by comprising using the epoxycycloalkane containing
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for using a catalyst capable of improving the hydrogen reduction activity of an oxygen-containing organic compound and the selectivity for the corresponding hydride and further improving the catalyst life when reducing the oxygen-containing organic compound with hydrogen and producing the corresponding hydrogenated oxygen-containing organic compound. SOLUTION: A nickel catalyst is subjected to an alkali treatment and drying and then a treatment with hydrogen to provide an alkali-treated nickel catalyst as a catalyst used for a hydrogen reducing reaction of the oxygen-containing organic compound. Thereby, the oxygen-containing organic compound is reduced with hydrogen in the presence of the resultant alkali-treated nickel catalyst.
