Abstract :Hydrogenation of citral on monometallic insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Pt); and bimetallic insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Pt-Sn); catalysts was investigated. It was found that the catalyst activities and product distributions were different over Na-Y and Clino supports. Among monometallic catalysts, Pt/Na-Y was more selective to citronellol insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(3.9%); and unsaturated alcohols, geraniol and nerol, insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(14.1%);. Sn addition increased the catalyst activities. However, its effect on product distribution differed. Yield of geraniol+nerol changed from 5.1% to 19.7% over Clino. However, selectivity to unsaturated alcohols over Na-Y decreased when it was prepared as a bimetallic catalyst support. Unsaturated alcohol formation was favored when there was a metal support interaction over monometallic catalysts, and metal-promoter interaction over bimetallic catalyst.Keywords : Citral, Pt Sn, hydrogenation, unsaturated alcohols, citronellal, zeolite catalysts
