Conclusions
-
1.
The activity of aluminum oxide in the reaction of hydrogen transfer from an alcohol molecule to a ketone is determined by its aprotonic acidity.
-
2.
The aprotonic portions of aluminum oxide catalyze the reaction of hydrogen transfer at relatively low temperatures (100–150°), at which dehydration of the alcohol does not yet take place.
