Abstract

Abstract: Using polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as the protective agent, the nano-bimetallic gold-palladium was prepared by the NaBH₄ reduction method and loaded on MgO-X modified by Na₂SiO₃ to synthesize the Au-Pd/MgO-X catalyst. The composition, structure and basic strength of the Au-Pd/MgO-X catalyst were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopry (TEM), etc. The results show that the catalyst catalyzes the oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde under solvent-free conditions. As the basicity of the Au-Pd/MgO-X catalyst increases, the selectivity of benzaldehyde increases. Under the conditions of 0.1 mol of benzyl alcohol, 100 mg of Au-Pd/MgO-X catalyst, 0.5 MPa of O₂, reaction time of 3 h, and reaction temperature of 120 ℃, the conversion of benzyl alcohol is 49.5% and the selectivity of benzaldehyde is 94.7%. The catalyst is used repeatedly for 5 times, and there is no obvious change in activity and selectivity, indicating that the catalyst has good stability.
