Stereoselective reduction of 4-tert-butylcyclohexanone to cis-4-tert-butylcyclohexanol catalysed by zeolite BEA

Abstract
Zeolite BEA is found to be the first Stereoselective and regenerable heterogeneous catalyst for the Meerwein–Ponndorf–Verley reduction of 4-tert-butylcyclohexanone to cis-4-tert-butylcyclohexanol.
