Carbon xerogel as catalytic support for noble metal based selective hydrogenation reactions
Nitric acid treated carbon xerogel was used as support to prepare Pt, Ir and Ru monometallic catalysts. The introduction of oxygen surface groups was important to increase metal dispersion but proved to limit selectivity to cinnamyl alcohol during the hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde. After an activa...
