Abstract
Olefins, dienes, and trienes can be hydrogenated in an aqueous-organic two-phase medium using the dimer of chloro (1, 5-hexadiene) rhodium as the catalyst. Selective reduction of the double bond of α, β-unsaturated carbonyls occurs in high yields. These reactions occur at room temperatures and atmospheric pressure, and are simple to work-up.
