Hybrid catalysts based on platinum and palladium nanoparticles for the hydrogenation of terpenes under slurry conditions

Аннотация

Catalysts based on platinum and palladium nanoparticles immobilized in mesoporous phenolformaldehyde polymers modified with sulfo groups have been used for the hydrogenation of a number of terpenes, such as (S)-(–)-limonene, α-terpinene, γ-terpinene, and terpinolene. It has been found that Pd-containing catalysts exhibit higher activity in the exhaustive hydrogenation of terpenes, whereas Pt-containing catalysts have high selectivity for p-menthene.
