Combined electrochemical and catalytic study of the enantioselective hydrogenation of ethyl pyruvate at supported platinum

The enantioselective hydrogenation of ethyl pyruvate to ethyl lactate (the Orito reaction) has been studied over cinchonidine-modified Pt/graphite moderated by the adsorption of S, Bi, Rh and Pd onto the Pt surface. The effect of the moderating elements on reaction rate (at 293 K, 30 bar, 100% conve...
