Abstract

Nanostructured palladium particles (nanorods, icosahedra, cubes) were synthesized in aqueous solution using a seeding-mediated approach with a structure-directing agent. These nanostructured Pd particles were then impregnated onto hydrogenotitanate nanotubes using two different impregnation procedures. The as-prepared catalysts were then tested in the selective hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde at 323 K under 10 bars of H2. The selectivity is influenced by the morphology of the Pd nanostructured particles with a higher selectivity into saturated alcohols when the proportion of (111) Pd sites increases.
