Abstract

There is substantial interest in immobilized transition metal catalysts, because they are capable of combining the advantages of homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis. The catalyst is easily removed after reaction, a high yield of the products can often be obtained, and the lifetime of the catalyst is good in some cases. From the variety of possible supports for hydrogenation reactions, the option for clays comes from their capacity to mimic to some extent, but at a ...
