Abstract

Pd–Ni bimetallic catalysts have been shown as more efficient catalyst for selective hydrogenation than the monometallic Pd catalyst. However, there is still precious component Pd in the catalyst, and the catalyst cost is still high. The current chapter will design non-precious catalyst for selective hydrogenation for dienes.
