Abstract

Hydrogenation of cyclohexene to cyclohexane and cyclooctene to cyclooctane with H2 in presence of Ni (saloph ), 1, (saloph = bis(salicylaldehyde )-o-phenylenediamine) were carried out at moderately high pressure (60 atm ) and temperature (50 ’ C ) in ethanol medium. At normal temperature and pressure, the same catalyst (complex 1) catalyses the epoxidation of cyclohexene and cyclooctene with KHSO5 in presence of CTAB (cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide; a phasetransfer reagent) in CH2Cl2. Cyclohexene oxide and cyclooctene oxide were found to be the major products of the epoxidation reactions.
