Abstract

Fe₂O₃-200, prepared via a facile precipitation method, could activate H₂ and stoichiometric N₂H₄·H₂O to reduce nitrobenzene, thus forming aniline. Fe₂O₃-200 could efficiently adsorb and activate the nitro group, promoting the hydrogenation of nitroarenes. Notably, the decomposition of N₂H₄·H₂O relies on the presence of the nitro group. Moreover, Fe₂O₃-200 exhibits good stability and universality.
