IN307880: An improved process and catalyst for the selective hydrogenation of phenol and its derivatives
Abstract
The present invention provides a process and catalyst for the conversion of phenol and its derivatives to cyclohexane and cyclohexanol. The process provides a direct single step for selective hydrogenation of phenol and its derivatives over Pt—Ce oxide catalyst. The process provides a phenol conversion of 50 to 100% and selectivity of hydrogenated product up to 98%.
