Abstract

It is shown that the 1% Pt/CeO2–ZrO2 (1% Pt/CZ) catalytic system allows selective hydrogenation of citral with a 94% conversion and a selectivity towards unsaturated alcohols of 59% at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. The effect of addition of alkali to the reaction mixture on the yield of the target products is studied, and the optimum conditions of the reaction are determined.
