Abstract
This paper describes the preparation, broad characterization and study of activity in hydrogenation and hydroformylation reactions of an easily produced 0.18% Rh/Al2O3. Analytical studies on fresh and recycled samples shed light on the smart properties of such catalyst. Results showed high activity as well as fine/excellent chemoselectivity or regioselectivity, characteristics that may suggest a wide range of applicability. The low metal content catalyst 0.18% Rh/Al2O3 was very active in both hydrogenation and hydroformylation reactions so providing intermediates for valuable APIs, as Nabumetone and Eletriptan, and a fragrance with a fresh, green-floral smell, that recalls scent of lily of the valley.
