Abstract

Ni nanoparticles (NPs) embedded in imidazolium based ionic liquids (ILs) have been proven to be versatile catalysts for the selective hydrogenation of benzonitrile to benzylamine with good recyclability in a biphasic system. Influence of the used ILs and reaction conditions has been examined in detail and a wider substrate scope has been studied using benzonitrile derivatives and aliphatic nitriles.
