Abstract
Reaction rates for the hydrogenation of twenty-seven acetylenic materials, both compounds and polymers, on calcium carbonate-supported palladium catalysts are reported. Certain of these organic-catalyst formulations are capable of rapidly and quantitatively removing hydrogen from an environment at low hydrogen pressure (100 mm Hg) and ambient temperature. Analysis of the rate data suggests that inductive, steric, and catalyst poisoning factors are involved in determining the rate of hydrogenation for any given alkyne.
