Abstract :
A novel application of silver(I) salt promoters in silver- and gold-catalysed hydrogenations was applied to the chemoselective reduction of halonitrobenzenes resulting in excellent conversions and selectivities. This reactivity, coupled with the low cost of silver relative to more expensive precious metal counterparts, demonstrates this catalytic system as an attractive alternative for challenging chemoselective transformations.
