Abstract

This work presents a facile and clean transformation for synthesizing diverse functionalized arylamines through chemoselective reduction reaction of their corresponding substituted nitroarenes catalyzed by the supported cobalt-promoted molybdenum carbide catalyst on modified activated carbon (Co–Mo2C/AC, AC
