New Catalytic Liquid-Phase Ammoxidation Approach to the Preparation of Niacin (Vitamin B3)

New highly dispersed bimetallic nanoscale catalysts based on rhenium combined with antimony or bismuth have been shown to be highly effective for the ammoxidation of 3-picoline to nicotinonitrile (precursor for vitamin B3) under mild conditions in the liquid phase.
