Reaktionsschritte

A shaking autoclave having an internal volume of about 60 ml was charged with 5 grams of acenaphthene and 0.2 gram of a 50% Ni/kieselguhr catalyst and with hydrogen at an initial pressure of 200 kg/cm2 gauge. Reaction was effected at 200° C. for 7 hours. Perhydroacenaphthene was produced in a yield of 100%, and the combined selectivity of Nos. 1 and 3 trans-isomers was 96%.
