Zusammenfassung:PURPOSE:To obtain cyclohexenes by the partial hydrogenation of a monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbon with hydrogen in the presence of water using a catalyst produced by supporting a group IVB metal in combination with Ru on hydrotalcites. CONSTITUTION:Cyclohexenes are produced in high selectivity and yield by partially hydrogenating a monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (e.g., benzene, chlorobenzene, hydroxybenzene or toluene) at 100-200 deg.C under a hydrogen pressure of 10-100kgf/cm in the presence of water using a catalyst produced by supporting a group IVB metal in combination with Ru on hydrotalcites. The catalyst can be produced by using a carrier consisting of a hydrotalcite of formula I (M is Mg, Mn, Fe, etc.; M is Al, Fe, etc.; A is OH, F, Co, etc.) or a compound of formula II forming a hydrotalcite structure by hydration, supporting Ru ion and a group IVB metal in arbitrary order on the carrier and reducing the product.
