Abstract:Supported Au-Pd nanoparticles (NPs) have been extensively studied in alcohol oxidation reactions. However, few studies use reducible metal oxides as support, which can activate oxygen molecules and boost the selectivity of the reaction. In this work, Au-Pd NPs were supported on α-MoO3 and evaluated in the selective oxidation of cinnamyl alcohol without solvent. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Raman spectroscopy, and X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS) analyses showed that the catalyst is… Show more
