Mechanism of catalytic hydrogenation of nitrobenzene in an aprotic medium in the presence of quinones

  • Published:
Bulletin of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, Division of chemical science Aims and scope

Conclusions

The hydrogenation of nitrobenzene in an aprotic medium in the presence of quinones is realized by a reduction-protonation mechanism through alternating stages of electron transfer and protonation. The function of proton donor is fulfilled by the corresponding hydroquinones formed from the quinones under the reaction conditions.
