Progress of Selective Hydrogenation of Phenol to Cyclohexanone Catalysed by Noble Metals
Recently,the design and application of noble metal catalysts have been developed rapidly and attracted considerable attention from both industry and academia.In this review,a brief overview of mechanism,preparation,and application of the catalytic selective hydrogenation of phenol to cyclohexanone have been described.We have classified the noble metal catalysts and described the development of selective hydrogenation of phenol.We hope to provide guidance for researchers working in this direction.
