PROCESS FOR PRODUCING HYDROGEN OR HEAVY HYDROGENS, AND HYDROGENATION (PROTIATION, DEUTERATION OR TRITIATION) OF ORGANIC COMPOUNDS USING SAME

摘要

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a process by which hydrogen or heavy hydrogens can be easily produced without using large-scale equipment and a process by which hydrogenation (protiation, deuteration or tritiation) can be easily conducted without using an expensive reagent or a special catalyst. A process for producing hydrogen or heavy hydrogens, characterized by subjecting water or a heavy water to a mechanochemical reaction in the presence of a catalyst metal; and a process for producing hydrogenated (protiated, deuterated, or tritiated) organic compounds, characterized by subjecting an organic compound together with either water or a heavy water to a mechanochemical reaction in the presence of a catalyst metal.
