✦ Synopsis
Reduction of aromatic rings such as phenol, naphthalenes, biphenyls, acenaphthene, and acenaphthylene was smoothly performed using a Raney Ni±Al alloy in dilute aqueous alkaline solution without any organic solvents at 90 C under atmospheric pressure, and the corresponding reduced compounds were obtained in high yields.
