Selective Oxidation of Veratryl Alcohol over Au-Pd/Ce0.62Zr0.38O2 Catalysts Synthesized by Sol-Immobilization: Effect of Au:Pd Molar Ratio

The selective oxidation of veratryl alcohol (VA), a model compound of lignin, with oxygen molecules to produce veratraldehyde (VAld) was studied over monometallic Au, Pd, and bimetallic Au:Pd nanoparticles supported on a Ce0.62Zr0.38O2 mixed oxide for the first time. These bimetallic Au-Pd catalysts...
