Abstract
Reactions of phenanthrene with hydrogen donors carried out in the presence of boron trifluoride etherate modified catalysts: silica, alumina or silica-alumina have been studied. Di-, tetra- and octahydrophenanthrenes as well as some bicyclic hydrocarbons were the reactions products. Their yields were strongly influenced by hydrogen donor polarity.
