Abstract
It is shown experimentally that the hydrogenation of azobenzenes over a nickel skeleton catalyst in 2-propanol aqueous solutions proceeds selectively with the formation of aniline. It is pointed out that during the reaction, considerable participation of hydrogen bonded with active centers of a catalyst surface was observed. The competitive character of adsorption between the initial azo compound and aniline formed as a result of reaction is established. It is concluded that purposeful change of the azo group hydrogenation rate is possible by introducing acid or base additives into 2-propanol aqueous solution.
