	abstract = {<p>Selective hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde over Pd (2 wt\%) supported on CeO2, ZrO2 and CeO2-ZrO2 catalysts is reported for the first time. In general, the olefinic (C=C) group of cinnamaldehyde is preferentially hydrogenated compared to the carbonyl (C=O) group. This selectivity preference could, however, be altered or reversed by adding alkali additives to the catalyst. The influence of additive on the structure and redox properties of the active sites and correlation of that with selective hydrogenation activity is investigated.</p>},

	abstract = {<p>Selective liquid phase hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde is reported, for the first time, over CeO2, ZrO2, and CeO2-ZrO2-supported Pt catalysts. Cinnamyl alcohol is the selective product. These catalysts are highly active and selective even at 25 degrees C and found to be superior to most of the hitherto known supported Pt catalysts. Alkali addition (NaOH) has enhanced the performance of these catalysts. At an optimized reaction condition, 95.8\% conversion of cinnamaldehyde and 93.4\% selectivity of cinnamyl alcohol have been obtained. Acidity of the support (due to the presence of ZrO2 component) and higher electron density at Pt (due to CeO2 component) are attributed to be responsible for the superior catalytic activity of Pt supported on CeO2-ZrO2 composite material.
