Hydrogenation of carbonyl compounds using tin-modified platinum-based catalysts prepared via surface organometallic chemistry on metals (SOMC/M)

The catalytic behaviour of some compounds containing CO and/or CC bonds has been studied over silica-supported platinum-based catalysts, modified with tin. Tin was introduced by means of surface organometallic chemistry on metals (SOMC/M) techniques. The effect of the obtention conditions upon the catalytic performance was evidenced through the study of three systems having the same Sn/Pt atomic ratio (0.4), but prepared and activated at...
