Improvement of the selectivity of isophorone hydrogenation by Lewis acids
The selective hydrogenation of isophorone (3,5,5-trimethyl-2- cyclohexen-1-one) to produce 3,3,5-trimethylcyclohexanone (TMCH), an important organic solvent and pharmaceutical intermediate, is of significance in industry. However, the over-hydrogenation to produce the by-product 3,3,5-trimethylcyclo...
