Abstract

The chemoselective hydrogenation of unsaturated bonds and azide functionalities is achieved in the presence of nitro groups by a heterogeneous palladium catalyst supported on molecular sieves (MS3A). The present method shows a wide-range of applicability with regard to substrates and the catalyst can be easily prepared and reused at least three times without any loss of activity.
