Abstract
A highly selective and stable catalyst based on Pt nanoparticles confined in Mesoporous TiO2-SiO2 frameworks were prepared and employed for selective hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde to cinnamyl alcohol. The as-prepared Pt/MesoTiO2-SiO2-M catalyst displayed excellent selectivity to cinnamyl alcohol (around 91%) at nearly complete conversion. Ti(2+) and stronger metal-support interaction (SMSI) played key roles on the adsorption behavior of cinnamaldehyde and activation of CO bonds. The existence of amorphous SiO2 and mixed TiO2 phases (anatase and rutile) was helpful for the formation of Ti(2+) sites and SMSI. The electron-enriched Pt surfaces and the formed Pt-TiOx system benefited the enhanced activity and selectivity.Entities:
