Hydrogenation of unsaturated polymers using monocyclopentadienyl group iv metal catalysts

摘要

Organic compounds are hydrogenated in the presence of certain monocyclopentadienyl Group IV metal compounds. These titanium compounds are effective hydrogenation catalysts for polymers containing ethylenic unsaturation. They further provide for selective hydrogenation of ethylenic unsaturation sites in the presence of aromatic groups.
