Abstract
The enantio-differentiating hydrogenation of 2- butanone was carried out using Raney nickel modified with tartaric acid and sodium bromide. 2-Butanol of 72% optical purity was obtained by optimizing the reaction variables and modification variables. The degree of the intrinsic enantio-differentiating ability of the adsorbed tartaric acid for 2-butanone was supposed to be similar to the abilities of tartaric acid for higher 2-alkanones.
