Abstract

Selective catalytic hydrogenation has wide applications in both petrochemical and fine chemical industries, however, it remains challenging when two or multiple functional groups coexist in the substrate. To tackle this challenge, the "active site isolation" strategy has been proved effective, and various approaches to the site isolation have been developed. In this review, we have summarized these approaches, including adsorption/grafting of N/S-containing organic molecules on the metal surface, partial covering of active metal surface by metal oxides either via doping or through strong metal-support interaction, confinement of active metal nanoparticles in micro- or mesopores of the supports, formation of…
