To provide a selective hydrogen add. method to an org. compd. having at least one unsatd. group, which directly accomplishes a purpose without necessity of a troublesome catalyst separation from an objective product and produces the objective product in high conversion rate of an objective hydrogen addition and further in high selectivity.
A hydrogen addition method is a method selectively adding hydrogen to at least one kind of an org. compd. having at least one unsatd. group by bringing the org. compd. into contact with a hydrogen contg. gas in the presence of a catalyst. The catalyst contains a catalyst acting material formed in a solid electrolyte, which is combined to a metal substrate, and thus, a current flows in the solid electrolyte, accordingly this catalyst acting material is maintained at a stationary potential during the hydrogen addition reaction and further a potential is applied to the catalyst.
