Heterogeneous catalytic hydrogenolysis of cyclohexene epoxides on 10percent Pd/C was studied in different solvents. The principal products were found to be alcohols, formed by cleavage of one epoxide C-O bond. In addition, simultaneous cleavage of both C-O bonds gave hydrocarbons, and isomerization on the catalyst gave ketones as byproducts. The deuterolysis of cis- and trans-tert-butylcyclohexene epoxides and kinetic studies with cyclohexene epoxides carrying an axial methyl group in position 3 or 5 showed that hydrogenolysis gives preferentially axial alcohols and trans hydrogen addition, after a "roll over" on the catalyst. If one epoxide carbon carries a methyl group, conformational and steric factors come into play. C-O bond cleavage at the more substituted carbon, leading to equatorial alcohols, becomes competitive with preferential formation of axial alcohols, and steric hindrance to molecular reorientation on the catalyst causes cis as well as trans hydrogen addition.

Hydrogenation of 2-, 3-, and 4-tert-butylphenols was studied over a charcoal-supported rhodium catalyst in supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) solvent, and the results were compared with those in organic solvents. In the hydrogenation of 4-ter
Trans-Selective and Switchable Arene Hydrogenation of Phenol Derivatives
Bergander, Klaus,Glorius, Frank,Heusler, Arne,Wollenburg, Marco
, p. 11365 - 11370 (2020/11/24)
A trans-selective arene hydrogenation of abundant phenol derivatives catalyzed by a commercially available heterogeneous palladium catalyst is reported. The described method tolerates a variety of functional groups and provides access to a broad scope of trans-configurated cyclohexanols as potential building blocks for life sciences and beyond in a one-step procedure. The transformation is strategically important because arene hydrogenation preferentially delivers the opposite cis-isomers. The diastereoselectivity of the phenol hydrogenation can be switched to the cis-isomers by employing rhodium-based catalysts. Moreover, a protocol for the chemoselective hydrogenation of phenols to cyclohexanones was developed.
γ-Silicon Stabilization of Carbonium Ions in Solvolysis. 4. Solvolysis of cis- and trans-3-(Trimethylsilyl)cyclohexyl and -3-tert-Butylcyclohexyl p-Bromobenzenesulfonates
