Abstract

Several unsaturated nitriles of various structures (cinnamonitrile, cyclohex-1-enyl- acetonitrile, acrylonitrile, 3, 3-dimethyl-acrylonitrile, geranylnitrile, and 2-and 3- pentenenitrile) with different substituents at the double bond were hydrogenated over Cr- doped Raney cobalt and nickel and over their undoped equivalents. The substitution and the position of the double bond relative to the nitrile group are crucial in determining the ...
