Abstract

Highly active and selective: A supported Ru₅PtSn nanoparticle cluster (the picture shows an axial projection of a tomogram), prepared from the carbonyl cluster [PtRu₅(CO)₁₅(μ-SnPh ₂)(μ₆-C)], is an excellent catalyst in the single-step hydrogenation of dimethyl terephthalate to cyclohexanedimethanol under mild conditions (100°C, 20 bar H₂). (Figure Presented).
