Process for hydrogenating unsaturated compounds in the liquid phase in the presence of a soluble catalyst obtained by reacting an organometal derivative or a metal hydride with a synergistic mixture of (a) a compound of zinc, zirconium, manganese, molybdenum, or iron and (b) a nickel or cobalt compound.

Process for hydrogenating unsaturated compounds

Process for manufacturing a catalyst suitable for the hydrogenation and reforming reactions, comprising impregnating, at a temperature of a least 160.degree. C, a solid carrier, with a homogeneous catalyst solution obtained by admixing in a solvent, at a temperature above 100.degree.C, a salt of a metal whose atomic number is in the range of from 22 to 29, 40 to 47, 72 to 79 and 90 to 92, with a metallic or organo-metallic reducing agent, the metal component being selected from groups Ia, IIa, IIb and IIIb.
