Homogeneous Hydrogenation in Organic Chemistry

Part of the book series: Homogeneous Catalysis in Organic and Inorganic Chemistry ((CMCO,volume 1))

  • 133 Accesses

Abstract

Although the reaction: alkene + hydrogen → alkane is thermodynamically allowed, hydrogen is a rather stable molecule not easily susceptible to polarisation, and in consequence reaction with an alkene is not observed in absence of a catalyst. Concerted addition is also symmetry disallowed.
