A simple system for rapid hydrodehalogenation of aryl halides using sodium borohydride with supported palladium and rhodium catalysts

A simple metal-hydride system is described for the rapid hydrodehalogenation of aromatic halides using sodium borohydride in combination with supported-metal catalysts. Carbon-supported palladium and rhodium catalysts are compared for efficiency in hydrodehalogenating simple arom...
