abstract:
Styrene oxide can be effectively isomerized to
phenyl-acetaldehyde (98%) over amorphous silica alumina
catalysts under very mild liquid phase conditions. On the
other hand, a copper catalyst prepared using a silica zirconia
support gave up to 80% yield in the hydrogenation of
styrene oxide to 2-phenyl-ethanol.
