Abstract

The structure and catalytic characteristics of a series of Pd–Cu/α-Al2O3 catalysts with Pd: Cu ratio varied from Pd1–Cu0.5 to Pd1–Cu4 were studied. The use of α-Al2O3 with a small surface area (Ssp = 8 m2/g) as a support made it possible to minimize the effect of diffusion on the catalytic characteristics and to study the structure of Pd–Cu nanoparticles by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. The XRD analysis and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) data indicated the formation of uniform bimetallic Pd–Cu nanoparticles (d = 20–60 nm), whose composition corresponded to a ratio between the metals in the catalyst, and also the absence of monometallic Pd0 and Cu0 nanoparticles. The study of catalytic properties in the liquid-phase hydrogenation of diphenylacetylene (DPA) showed that the activity of the catalysts rapidly decreased with the Cu content increase; however, in this case, the yield of a desired alkene compound significantly increased. The selectivity of alkene formation on the catalysts with the ratios Pd: Cu = 1: 3 and 1: 4 was superior to the commercial Lindlar catalyst.
