Abstract

Selectivity control in heterogeneously catalyzed hydrogenation of conjugated hydrocarbons (ene-yne and diene compounds) is a challenging task. Available studies on the topic mainly encircle 1, 3-butadiene as the substrate and palladium as the catalyst, while more elaborated playground molecules and other metals remain largely unexplored. This study investigates the gas-phase hydrogenation of valylene (2-methyl-1-butene-3-yne) and ...
