Homogeneous hydrogenation of dienes with rhodium complexes
TLDR
In this paper, different Rh complex catalysts were compared for the hydrogenation of methyl sorbate and linoleate in the absence of solvents, and the results indicated that 1,2-reduction was more than twice as important as 1,4-addition of H2 via conjugated diene intermediates.Abstract:
Different Rh complex catalysts were compared for the hydrogenation of methyl sorbate and linoleate in the absence of solvents. At 100 C and 1 atm H2 the following complexes, RhCl(Ph3 P)3 (Ph= phenyl), [RhClNBD]2 (NBD=norbornadiene) and RhH(CO)(Ph3P)3, produced mainly methyltrans-2-hexenoate (34 to 56%). Their diene selectivity was not particularly high as they produced 14 to 41% methyl hexanoate. With RhCl(Ph3 P)3 constant ratios between rates of methyl sorbate disappearance and formation of methyltrans-2- andtrans-3-hexenoate indicate approximately the same activation energy for 1,2-addition of H2 on the Δ4 double bond of methyl sorbate and for 1,4-addition to this substrate. In the hydrogenation of methyl linoleate with RhCl(Ph3 P)3, the kinetic curves were simulated by a scheme in which 1,2-reduction was more than twice as important as 1,4-addition of H2 via conjugated diene intermediates. Although the complexes RhCl(CO)(Ph3 P)3 and [Rh(NBD)(diphos)]+PF6 (diphos=diphosphine) were inactive in the hydrogenation of methyl sorbate, they catalyzed the hydrogenation of methyl linoleate at 100 C and 1 atm. Catalyst inhibition apparently was caused by stronger complex formation with methyl sorbate than with the conjugated dienes formed from methyl linoleate.read more

Fixed-Bed Continuous Hydrogenation of Soybean Oil With Palladium-Polymer Supported Catalysts
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of processing variables such as space velocity, pressure, temperature and hydrogen flow on the selectivity, specific isomerization and the activity was investigated, and the results indicated that Pd-on-styrene, Pdon-carbon and extruded Ni catalysts, in fixed-bed continuous hydrogenation can produce soybean oil of desirable composition after further optimization.

Selective extraction of polyunsaturated triacylglycerols using a novel ionic liquid precursor immobilized on a mesoporous complexing adsorbent.
TL;DR: Mesoporous silica synthesized by using Pluronic123 as the structure‐directing template was functionalized by imidazolium‐based ionic liquid precursors to achieve the selective separation of polyunsaturated triacylglycerols and retained its selectivity and capacity when recycled up to five times.
