Abstract
Ru/γ-Al2O3 nanocatalyst with different metal loading was synthesized by microwave irradiated solvothermal technique. Synthesized nanocatalyst (4-14 nm of metal particle size) was then successfully implemented for the hydrogenation of dibenzocrown-18-crown-6 ether (DB18C6) at 9 MPa, 393 K temperature and 3.5 h. It was observed that the metallic small nanoclusters produced at 4 wt% metal concentration exhibited higher catalytic activity and resulted 96.7% conversion with 100% selectivity towards cis-syn-cis-dicyclohexano-18-crown-6 ether (CSC DCH18C6).
