Abstract
The Meerwein–Ponndorf–Verley (MPV) reaction allowed the successful reduction of various aldehydes and ketones by using an MgAlO x mixed oxide previously obtained from a layered double hydroxide as catalyst and 2-propanol as hydrogen donor. The reaction exhibited good yield and selectivity towards the corresponding alcohol in all cases. The results were quite consistent with a mechanism involving adsorption of the reactants on an acid–base pair in the catalyst.
