Geometric and electronic effects on hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde over unsupported Pt-based nanocrystals. by Oduro, W, Cailuo, N, Yu, K, Yang, H, Tsang, S

“…It is reported that catalytic hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde to cinnamyl alcohol is a structural sensitive reaction dependent on size and type of metal doper of unsupported platinum nanocrystals used. Smaller sizes of platinum nanocrystals are found to give lower selectivity to cinnamyl alcohol, which suggests the high index Pt sites are undesirable for the terminal aldehyde hydrogenation. …”
