dehydrogenation

The substance did not receive interest until its potential as a dehydrogenation agent was discovered.

Numerous plants dedicated to propane dehydrogenation are currently under construction around the world.

It is also obtained by dehydrogenation of 2-ethyl phenol.

The reverse reaction, removal of hydrogen from a molecule, is called dehydrogenation.

In fact, hydroxylation is sometimes followed by dehydrogenation, leading to more complex metabolites.

A variety of dehydrogenation processes have been described, especially for organic compounds:

Benzene can also be prepared by dehydrogenation of hexane.

A specialized industrial route entails the catalytic dehydrogenation of ethanol.

In principle allyl alcohol can be obtained by dehydrogenation of propanol.

It is manufactured by the thermal dehydrogenation of isomeric diethylbenzenes.

Butyraldehyde can be produced by the catalytic dehydrogenation of n-butanol.

This kind of reaction is called dehydrogenation.

On dehydrogenation over palladium-charcoal, the reactant forms the 17 membered ring.

Styrene is most commonly produced by the catalytic dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene.

It is prepared by the dehydrogenation of pyridine using Raney nickel:

This plant produces a pure stream of ethylbenzene that is used in the dehydrogenation plant.

It is a dehydrogenation reaction because two hydrogen atoms are removed from ethylbenzene to give styrene.

Although fluorene is obtained from coal tar, it can also be prepared by dehydrogenation of diphenylmethane.

Imidazoles can be prepared from dehydrogenation of imidazolines.

For instance, dehydrogenation is employed in steroid synthesis to form unsaturated ketones.

It also arises via the dimerization of acetylene or dehydrogenation of 1,3-butadiene.

Dehydrogenation of amine-boranes is thermodynamically favourable, making the process attractive for hydrogen storage systems.

Dehydrogenation occurs in three steps, creating polyamino-boranes and borazines as insoluble side products.

It is produced industrially by dehydrogenation of acenaphthene.

Formally this species is derived by oxidative dehydrogenation of 2,2'-diaminobiphenyl.
