Abstract

... The Journal of Organic ... ncl.res.in. J. Org. Chem. ... This is an additional advantage since hydrogenation of nitro aromatics is highly exothermic. Due to the use of the aqueous-phase catalyst, organic solvents can be totally avoided, thereby making the process more eco-friendly. ...
