Abstract: Reduction of aromatic nitrocompounds have been carried out in presence of isopropanol and KOH over some metal oxide catalysts, viz., SnO2, La2O-SnO2 and La2O3. Reduction of p-nitrobenzophenone has resulted in the chemoselective formation of p-aminobenzophenone. It is proposed that reduction of nitroarenes proceed via a mechanism similar to Meerwin –Pondroff-Verly (M-P-V) reduction of ketones.
