Abstract
The influence of the reaction medium on the surface structure and properties of a Ni-based catalyst used for the reductive transformations of O-, N-, and S-containing aromatic substrates under hydrogen transfer conditions has been studied. The catalysts were characterized by XRD, XPS, and IR spectroscopy and TEM methods before and after the reductive reaction. It has been shown that the conversion of 1-benzothiophene causes irreversible poisoning of the catalyst surface with the formation of the Ni2S3 phase, whereas the conversion of naphthalene, 1-benzofuran, and indole does not cause any phase change of the catalyst at 250 °C. However, after the indole conversion, the catalyst surface remains enriched with N-containing compounds, which are evenly distributed over the surface.
