An effective Pd-catalyzed reduction of olefins in water using formic acid is disclosed. A wide range of saturated hydrocarbons are obtained with an excellent conversion and remarkable chemoselectivity under mild reaction conditions. This protocol is more advantageous and less cumbersome owing to the use of HCOOH as a hydrogen source, water as a solvent, and simple workup procedure. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
