Intermetallic PdZn nanoparticles catalyze the continuous-flow hydrogenation of alkynols to cis-enols

The semi-hydrogenation of alkynol to cis-enol is a critical process in the industrial production of fine and intermediate chemicals, but viable alternatives to lead-free palladium-based catalysts for this reaction are scarce. Here, an intermetallic PdZn/ZnO nanoparticle catalyst is designed and its...
