Catalysis with supported palladium metal, selectivity in the hydrogenation of C=C, C=O and C=N bonds, from chemo- to enantioselectivity
The selectivity characteristics of Pd catalysts in heterogeneous hydrogenations are discussed, especially the stereochemical issues in the reduction of C=C, C=O and C=N bonds. Special attention was paid to diastereoselective and enantioselective reactions.
