## Abstract The microwave‐assisted hydrogenation of citral (3,7‐dimethylocta‐2,6‐dienal) to citronellal with molecular hydrogen as the reducing agent was investigated. Several polar and non‐polar solvents were screened and imidazolium‐based ionic liquids were applied as modifiers for the palladium‐
