Abstract

Abstract 2-Cyclohexen-1-one can be synthesized from phenol using silica-supported Pd catalyst by hydrogenation under coexisting hydrogen and oxygen gases. The effects of hydrogen and oxygen ratio, solvent, and alloying Pd with Au were investigated. Similar transformations toward corresponding cyclic enones were observed in other phenolic compounds.
