Abstract

Abstract Pd/Al2O3 catalysts were prepared by wet impregnation using K2PdCl4, (NH4)2PdCl4, and Pd(NO3)2 as precursors. All catalysts were characterized by means of inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES), temperature-programmed reduction (TPR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and CO chemisorption. The results obtained in the hydrogenation of cumene hydroperoxide (CHP) to α-cumyl alcohol (CA) showed that Pd/Al2O3 catalyst prepared from Pd(NO3)2 exhibited the highest turnover frequency (TOF) value and the greatest deactivation extent, whereas Pd/Al2O3 catalyst prepared from (NH4)2PdCl4 displayed the lowest TOF value but the best stability.
