Metallic Ni shows high activity for a variety of hydrogenation reactions due to its intrinsically high capability for H2 activation, but it suffers from low chemoselectivity for target products when two or more reactive functional groups are present on one molecule. Modification by other metals changes the geometric and electronic structures of the monometallic Ni catalyst, providing an opportunity to design Ni-based bimetallic catalysts with improved activity, chemoselectivity, and durability. In this review, the hydrogenation properties of these catalysts are described starting from the typical methods of preparing Ni-based bimetallic nanoparticles. In most cases, the reasons for the enhanced catalysis are discussed based on the geometric and electronic effects. This review provides new insights into the development of more efficient and well-structured non-noble metal-based bimetallic catalytic systems for chemoselective hydrogenation reactions.

A variety of solid acid catalysts especially 12-Tungstophosphoricacid (DTP) supported on silica has been reported for the acylation of anisole, veratrole and toluene. However, the activity of this catalyst is susceptible to coke formation or poor activity. This paper reports the novelties of steam treated SiO2-DTP core-shell nanoparticles, which exhibits tremendous stability, high activity and enhanced selectivity in the liquid-phase acylation of anisole, veratrole and toluene as compared to conventional DTP supported on silica.

Hydrogenation of CO 2 to alcohols is of great importance, especially when producing higher alcohols. In this work, we synthesized heterogeneous PtRu/Fe 2 O 3 , in which the Pt and Ru bimetallic catalysts were supported on Fe 2 O 3 . The catalyst was used to catalyse CO 2 hydrogenation to alcohols. It was demonstrated that the activity and selectivity could be tuned by the bimetallic composition, and the catalyst with a Pt to Ru molar ratio of 1:2 (Pt 1 Ru 2 /Fe 2 O 3 ) had high activity and selectivity at 200°C, which is very low for heterogeneous hydrogenation of CO 2 to produce higher alcohols. The conversion and the selectivity increased with increasing pressures of CO 2 and/or H 2 . The catalyst could be reused at least five times without any obvious change in activity or selectivity.

Catalytic systems based on bimetallic Pd-Au particles deposited on SiO2 were prepared by ultrasonically assisted water impregnation and used in the hydrogenation of furfural obtained by the acidic hydrolysis of waste biomass (brewery’s spent grain) in aqueous phase. Pd-Au/SiO2 catalysts containing 50 g of Pd and 2–100 g of Au per 1 kg of catalyst were characterized by high activity in the studied process and, depending on the Pd/Au ratio, selectivity to 2-methyloxolan-2-ol. The modification of 5%Pd/SiO2 by Au leads to the formation of dispersed Au-Pd solid solution phases, which was confirmed by XRD, XPS, ToF-SIMS, SEM-EDS, and H2-TPR techniques. The effect of dilution of surface palladium by gold atoms is probably crucial for modification of the reaction mechanism and formation of 2-methyloxolan-2-ol as the main product.
