The present invention generally relates to processes for the catalytic hydrogenation of halonitroaromatics. In particular, the present invention includes processes for the catalytic hydrogenation of halonitroaromatics such as 2,5-dicloronitrobenzene to 2,5-dichloroaniline over a platinum-containing catalyst. The present invention also relates to processes for producing 3,6-dichloro-2-methoxybenzoic acid.

Aspects of the present disclosure provide for bridgehead-substituted triptycene-based diamines and methods of making bridgehead-substituted triptycene-based diamines.

A catalyst including platinum (Pt) and a composite support. The composite support includes ZrO.sub.2/mesoporous silica sieve SBA-15. The platinum accounts for 0.01-0.3 wt. % of the catalyst. ZrO.sub.2 accounts for 5-20 wt. % of the composite support.
