Hexagonally packed Pd nanoarray catalyst for liquid-phase enantioselective hydrogenation of acetophenone to R-(+)-1-phenylethanol in the presence of S-proline

Hexagonally packed Pd nanoarray catalyst was prepared via the "two solvents" strategy with mesoporous molecular sieve SBA-15 as a hard template. By using S-proline as the chiral modifier, the catalyst exhibited superior activity and selectivity in liquid-phase hydrogenation of acetophenone...
