36. Set-up 1: The substrate and the catalyst were added into a glove liner, the vessel was sealed and purged with nitrogen. The solvent and a solution of the base were added and the reactor was pressurized with hydrogen. Set-up 2: The hydrogenation catalyst was added to a solution of the ketone and the base. In order to minimize the exposure of the catalyst to the base, it is recommendable that the solution of the catalyst is added last and hydrogen pressure is applied immediately afterwards.

43. However, complete transformation cannot always be accomplished by addition of fresh catalyst in the presence of spent catalyst.
44. In general, the hydrogen uptake curves are sigma-shaped. A slow induction period is followed by fast transformation of the substrate. Towards the end of the hydrogenation, the reaction rate slows down significantly.
