Abstract
The low pressure hydrogenation of acetophenone to 1-phenylethanol in the presence of some nickel and noble metal catalysts is described. The effects of each are noted. While palladium-on-carbon appears to be the catalyst of choice, others can be used under proper conditions. Only rhodium causes enough side reaction to discourage its use.
