Abstract
The enantio-differentiating hydrogenation of 3-octanone was carried out using tartaric acid-NaBr-modified nickel catalyst and compared with that of 2-alkanones. For the hydrogenation of 3-octanone, fine nickel powder was a better source of the catalyst than Raney nickel. 3-Octanone was hydrogenated with an optical yield of 30% over tartaric acid-NaBr-fine nickel powder. As for the effect of hydrogenation temperature on optical yield, hydrogenation at a lower temperature resulted in a lower optical yield for the hydrogenation of 3-octanone, while the lower temperature resulted in a higher optical yield for the hydrogenation of 2-alkanones.
