| abstract |
The invention discloses aneco-friendly process for hydrogenation (alkenealkene, carbonyl compound and aromatic) and hydrodeoxygenation (methoxy phenols) of organic compound using hydrous ruthenium oxide (HRO) and its supported form as a recyclable heterogeneous catalyst in aqueous medium with good yield of desired compounds (70-100%) under mild reaction conditions. The invention also discloses hydrogenation of organic compound such as alkene, carbonyl compound and substituted aromatic and also for the processes that involve hydrodeoxygenation, for example, lignin derived aromatic (methoxy phenols). |
