The authors have investigated the kinetics of the liquid-phase hydrogenation of cyclohexene on Pt/C from 16 to 49/degree/C and at 0.2 to 21. MPa and on Pd/C from 35 to 85/degree/C and at 0.09 to 2.1 MPa. The rate of reaction conforms to a kinetic equation previously derived for the dehydrogenation of the benzene ring. Catalysts containing 0.5% Pt or Pd on activated carbon (BAU grade) and not 5% as for the hydrogenation of benzene were used for the kinetic measurements. The rate of hydrogenation was determined with catalyst batches of 0.1 and 02. g when the reaction order with respect to H/sub 2/ was not equal to zero. The yield of the reaction vessel was proportional to the weight of catalyst.
