Abstract The hydrogenation of nitriles to amines represents an important and frequently used industrial process due the broad applicability resulting products in chemistry life sciences. Despite existing portfolio catalysts reported for nitriles, development iron-based heterogeneous this is still a challenge. Here, we show that impregnation pyrolysis iron(II) acetate on commercial silica produces reusable Fe/Fe–O@SiO 2 catalyst with well-defined structure comprising fayalite phase at Si–Fe...

Abstract Herein, we report the synthesis of specific silica‐supported Co/Co 3 O 4 core–shell based nanoparticles prepared by template cobalt‐pyromellitic acid on silica and subsequent pyrolysis. The optimal catalyst material allows for general selective hydrogenation pyridines, quinolines, other heteroarenes including acridine, phenanthroline, naphthyridine, quinoxaline, imidazo[1,2‐a]pyridine, indole under comparably mild reaction conditions. In addition, recycling these Co their ability...
