Abstract
The direct synthesis of alkenylaromatics during catalytic transfer reduction (CTR) of aralkyl ketones with isopropyl alcohol over MgO of enhanced acidity has been investigated. Magnesia was successfully modified with H 2SO 4 and H 3PO 4. The studied ketones, acetophenone, 4-isopropylacetophenone, propiophenone, and 5-nonanone, were quantitatively transformed to alkenes under the adopted conditions. A long-time stability of the catalysts activity and reaction selectivity has been demonstrated.
