Platinum supported on TiO2 as a new selective catalyst on heterogeneous hydrogenation of alpha,beta-unsaturated oxosteroids

This paper describes the photochemical deposition of platinum onto TiO2 surface and the full characterization of the catalysts using BET, XPS and TEM techniques. The 1 and 3 wt.% Pt/TiO2 catalysts reveal high activity with 70% and 96% of alpha-diastereoselectivity in the hydrogenation of the carbon-...
