Abstract

Catalytic hydrogenation of SBS was performed for the first time in polyether molten salt with Ru/TPPTS complex as catalyst. Experimental results showed that the hydrogenation degree can be enhanced significantly by the addition of triphenylphosphine (TPP). When the molar ratio of TPP, TPPTS and Ru is 2:5:1. 89% hydrogenation degree can be achieved after 12 h under reaction conditions of 5.0 MPa and 150°C. The ionic liquid containing catalyst can be reused three times without obvious changes in the catalytic selectivity and activity.
