Abstract

Various arenes have been hydrogenated using platinum on carbon in a 2-propanol-aqueous mixed solvent at 100 C without the addition of flammable hydrogen gas to give the corresponding cyclohexane derivatives. 2-Propanol plays a role as an efficient hydrogen source based on the platinum on carbon-catalyzed dehydrogenation.
