A commercial catalyst containing Pd (PdAlO(OH) NPs) was used as the supporting material in the study. However, the amount of catalyst used was reduced by 40% compared to the amounts used previously due to the effect of mineral water. Thanks to the developed environmentally friendly and practical method, 8 different nitro arene compounds were converted to aryl amine derivatives with yields over 95%. The most powerful aspect of the developed method is that it is economical and industrial.}, number={3}, publisher={Duzce University}, organization={Duzce University}
