Selective hydrogenation of phenol to cyclohexanone by SiO2-supported rhodium nanoparticles under mild conditions

A silica-supported rhodium catalyst for the selective hydrogenation of phenol to cyclohexanone under mild conditions has been developed. As the Rh concentration on the catalyst increased from 0.5 to 15 wt%, the conversion (at phenol/Rh mole ratio 100/1) dropped whereas the initial selectivity to cyc...
