Saturated fatRelated: Partial hydrogenation can reduce unsaturation while also producing industrial trans fats.
KetoneRelated: Catalytic hydrogenation can reduce ketones to secondary alcohols.
Oleic acidRelated: Hydrogenation can convert oleic acid’s double bond into a saturated chain.

HydroformylationRelated: Hydrogenation converts hydroformylation aldehydes into alcohols.
MargarineRelated: Partial hydrogenation once made margarine firmer, but could create trans fats.
Hydration reactionCompared with: It also saturates unsaturated bonds, but supplies hydrogen rather than water.
Lipid oxidationCompared with: It reduces some unsaturation and can alter susceptibility to oxidation.
Polyunsaturated fatty acidRelated: Food processing can reduce unsaturation and alter fat texture and stability.
ShorteningRelated: It has been used to make liquid oils firmer for baking.
Hydride transferNarrower topic: Hydrogenation is a broader transformation that can proceed through hydride-transfer steps.
Sunflower oilRelated: It can harden sunflower oil, though partial hydrogenation produces trans fats.
CyclohexeneRelated: Hydrogenation converts cyclohexene into cyclohexane by saturating its double bond.
Addition reactionBroader topic: It converts alkenes and alkynes into more saturated compounds by hydrogen addition.
AnthraquinoneRelated: Hydrogenation reduces anthraquinone derivatives in the industrial hydrogen peroxide cycle.
Cottonseed oilRelated: It has been used to make cottonseed oil more solid for food products.
Double bondRelated: Hydrogenation removes a carbon–carbon double bond by adding hydrogen atoms across it.
Fatty alcoholRelated: Industrial fatty alcohol production can reduce fatty acids or their esters by hydrogenation.
Saturated compoundRelated: Hydrogenation can convert unsaturated compounds into saturated ones.
Geoffrey WilkinsonRelated: Wilkinson’s rhodium catalyst provided a selective route for hydrogenating alkenes.
Paul SabatierBroader topic: Sabatier developed a metal-catalyzed method for adding hydrogen to organic compounds.
Peanut butterRelated: Some formulations use hardened oils to reduce separation and keep the spread firm.
Cinnamic acidRelated: Hydrogenation converts cinnamic acid’s alkene into the saturated chain of hydrocinnamic acid.
Degree of unsaturationCompared with: Hydrogenation changes the count by consuming multiple bonds, unlike merely calculating it.
Group 10 elementRelated: Nickel and palladium catalysts enable industrial and laboratory hydrogenation.
MaltitolRelated: It converts maltose’s carbonyl group into maltitol’s alcohol group.
Parent hydrideCompared with: Hydrogenation changes molecular composition by adding hydrogen, unlike naming derivatives by replacing it.
Stearyl alcoholRelated: Hydrogenation can convert unsaturated fatty feedstocks into saturated materials used to make fatty alcohols.
ButyraldehydeRelated: Catalytic hydrogenation converts butyraldehyde's carbonyl group into an alcohol group.
Friedrich BergiusNarrower topic: Coal hydrogenation applies this broader reaction to complex solid material.

LactitolRelated: This reaction converts lactose’s reactive carbonyl group into lactitol’s sugar alcohol structure.
Lithium hydrideRelated: LiH can supply hydride in reduction chemistry, though it is not itself a conventional hydrogenation catalyst.
PropyneRelated: Hydrogen adds across propyne’s triple bond to form alkenes or propane.
2-ButyneRelated: Adding hydrogen to 2-butyne can produce an alkene or, with further reduction, an alkane.
PropionaldehydeRelated: Catalytic hydrogenation is one industrial route from propionaldehyde to 1-propanol.
TallowCompared with: Unlike hydrogenation, rendering purifies animal fat without chemically hardening it.
1-ButyneRelated: Hydrogenation can reduce 1-butyne to butene or, with further reduction, butane.
