Description
Summary:An efficient chemoselective reduction of aromatic nitro compounds to corresponding amino analogues was achieved using palladium/sucrose (Pd/S) nanoparticles as an eco friendly catalyst, a green approach formate in ethanol at RT. The reductions are fruitfully carried out in presence of various other reducible functional groups such as halo, alkoxy, carbonyl, and cyanide etc. The reactions are worthy and high yielding (100%).
