6-Methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene is a dibenzothiophene that can be used as a catalyst in organic synthesis. It has been shown to catalyze the hydrogenation of cyclohexylbenzene with sulphides as the hydrogen donor, yielding a high yield of the corresponding benzene. The selectivity is also high for this reaction. 6-Methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene has also been shown to be capable of catalyzing the selective reduction of phenol to aniline with hydrogen gas and sulphur dioxide as the hydrogen source. 6-Methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene is a good candidate for use in industrial processes because it reacts with oxygen at higher temperatures and pressures than other catalysts typically used in these reactions.
