1,3-Butadiene hydrogenation on pd-supported systems: geometric effects

A strong metal support interaction (SMSI) effect was observed on Pd/Nb2O5 and Pd/TiO2 catalysts, and it produces small, exposed Pd ensembles. A decrease in the trans/cis 2-butene ratio was observed after reduction at 773 K. Selectivity changes were ascribed to the decoration model. Theoretical model...
