Application

Palladium on activated charcoal (Pd/C) is a catalyst used in hydrogenation of alkenes, alkynes, ketones, nitriles, imines, nitro groups, aromatic and heteroaromatic systems. Pd/C also catalyzes phosphination of aryl bromides and triflates with triphenylphines to yield aryl phosphines.

We describe a chemical technology for the reductive catalytic multiphase hydrodechlorination (HDC) of chlorinated aromatics to greatly reduce their toxicity and aid the disposal of such species. The system requires no solvent and the catalyst displays a high recycling efficiency.
