Abstract
A Pd/α-Al2O3 nanocatalyst was synthesized and investigated as a catalyst for CO oxidative coupling to diethyl oxalate and CeO2 was used as a promoter. With the highest activity and stability found so far, great CO conversion and diethyl oxalate selectivity were achieved due to the addition of CeO2.
