Pt@SnOx/SiO2 catalysts with enhanced selectivity to allyl alcohol for acrolein hydrogenation†
Abstract
A core–shell structure of Pt@SnOx/SiO2 was developed for the selective hydrogenation of acrolein. This structure significantly promoted the synergetic effect between Pt and SnOx for the selective hydrogenation of the CO bond in the presence of the CC bond, and showed high activity and selectivity to allyl alcohol.
