Abstract

Previous communications1. 2-3 have reported the hydrogenolysis of sulfur-containing compounds by Raney nickel catalyst in the absence of hydrogen except that contained in the catalyst. When such reactions are used in structure determinations on an unknown substance, it is useful to know their limitations. Because of this, a few types of compounds which do not contain sulfur have been subjected to similar treatment in order to observe ...
