Abstract The heterogeneous hydrogenation of substituted pyridines has been accomplished by employing a continuous flow hydrogenation device that incorporates in situ hydrogen generation by electrolysis of H 2 O and pre-packed catalyst cartridges. In general, the hydrogenation reactions proceeded smoothly regardless of the supported precious metal catalyst (Pd/C, Pt/C, or Rh/C). By using 30–80 bar of hydrogen pressure at 60–80 C full ...
