Abstract: A series of substituted nitrobenzenes with the general formula XC6H4NO2 (X=Cl, CH=CH2, or C(O)CH3) dissolved in toluenewere reduced with hydrogen over the 1.9% Au/Al2O3 catalyst at 60–1108C and 10–20 bar in a three-phase packed-bed reactor operating in up-flow mode. Under these conditions, hydrogenation of isomeric ClC6H4NO2 gives exclusively chloroanilines. Hydrogenation of 3-CH2CHC6H4NO2 and 4-CH3C(O)C6H4NO2 leads to the formation of 3-CH2CHC6H4NH2 and 4-CH3C(O)C6H4NH2 with selectivities of up to 93 and 97% at substrate conversions of 98 and 100%, respectively. Smooth catalyst deactivation was observed regardless of which substituted nitrobenzene was taken for hydrogenation. According to the results obtained by temperature-programmed oxidation of the spent catalyst, a carbonaceous deposit formed that might block the catalyst surface. Almost complete regeneration of the supported gold catalyst with retention of its high selectivity to hydrogenation of a nitro group was achieved in a flow of air at temperatures up to 400 8C to eliminate carbonaceous deposits.
