The present disclosure relates to an organometallic framework modified using a compound having a hydroxyl group (—OH), a catalyst for a hydrogenation reaction including the same, and a method of manufacturing the same. The catalyst according to the present disclosure has high activity to the hydrogenation reaction even at a low temperature of 30 to 40° C., thus making low-grade waste heat usable.

Disclosed are methods of selective hydrodeoxygenation of aromatic compounds by using catalyst systems comprising N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) and 4-pyridinol-derived pincer ligands and metal complexes containing these ligands.

With respect to an addition-curable thermally conductive silicone composition in which a silver filler is blended, a catalyst having a specific structure and an organohydrogen polysiloxane having a specific structure are used for the purpose of extending the working life at room temperature, while maintaining the flexibility, so that a thermally conductive silicone composition which is able to have a good balance between flexibility after curing and storage stability in one pack, while having extremely low thermal resistance and excellent reliability is achieved.

The present disclosure provides a method for efficiently producing and providing compounds having a spirooxindole skeleton, for example compounds having a spirooxindole skeleton and having antitumor activity that inhibit the interaction between Mdm2 protein and p53 protein, or intermediates thereof, using an asymmetric catalyst. Compounds having optically active tricyclic dispiroindole skeletons are obtained through catalytic asymmetric 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction using ketimine as a reaction substrate and using a chiral ligand and a Lewis acid.
