Abstract

Abstract Anthranilic acid has been anchored to polystyrene, and rhodium, palladium, platinum and ruthenium complexes of this modified polystyrene have been prepared. These catalysts will reduce a variety of olefinic and aromatic hydrocarbons, and also nitrile, nitro and carbonyl functional groups, said carbonyl groups being present in either ketones or aldehydes.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 56 words
A heterogeneous catalyst consisting essentially of anthranilic acid complexed with a metal selected from the group consisting of rhodium, ruthenium, palladium and platinum, said anthranilic acid complex being chemically linked through the amino group thereof to a polymeric support having reactive sites thereon for effecting a chemical linkage between the anthranilic acid complex and said polymer.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 56 words
A heterogeneous catalyst consisting essentially of anthranilic acid complexed with a metal selected from the group consisting of rhodium, ruthenium, palladium and platinum, said anthranilic acid complex being chemically linked through the amino group thereof to a polymeric support having reactive sites thereon for effecting a chemical linkage between the anthranilic acid complex and said polymer.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 14 words
The catalyst of claim 1, wherein the metal complexed with anthranilic acid is rhodium.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 14 words
The catalyst of claim 1, wherein the metal complexed with anthranilic acid is palladium.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 12 words
The catalyst of claim 1, wherein the polymeric support is chloromethylated polystyrene.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 86 words
A process for the preparation of the catalyst of claim 1 which comprises reacting anthranilic acid in an inert organic solvent with a polymer substrate having reactive sites thereon for effecting a chemical linkage between the amino group of said anthranilic acid and said polymer substrate, and thereafter contacting the thus treated polymer substrate, in an inert organic solvent, with a compound of a metal selected from the group consisting of rhodium, ruthenium, palladium and platinum for a time sufficient to effect a complexation reaction therebetween.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 12 words
The process of claim 5, wherein said compound is a rhodium compound.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 38 words
The process of claim 6, wherein the complex of rhodium with anthranilic acid which is chemically linked to said polymer substrate is thereafter treated with a reducing agent effective to reduce said rhodium to a lower valent state.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 12 words
The process of claim 5, wherein said compound is a palladium compound.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 18 words
The catalyst of claim 1, wherein the reactive sites on said polymeric support are CH 2 Cl groups.
