Rhodium-Platinum Oxide (Rh–Pt Oxide), or Nishimura Catalyst, is an inorganic compound used as a hydrogenation catalyst.[1]

Uses

Rh–Pt Oxide is used to reduce various aromatic compounds to their respective cycloalkanes or saturated heterocycles under mild conditions (i.e. often at room temperature and atmospheric pressure).[2][3] In this application, Rh–Pt Oxide is superior to other group 10 catalysts such as platinum dioxide. Furthermore, the catalyst can be used to carryout the reaction with minimal losses of oxygen containing functional groups via hydrogenolysis.[4][5][6]

Preparation

An aqueous solution of rhodium chloride, Hexachloroplatinic acid, and sodium nitrate is dried and fused in a porcelain dish.[1][3] The resulting substance is then washed with dilute sodium nitrate followed by drying with calcium chloride. Finally the dried material is reduced under hydrogen in glacial acetic acid to yield the catalyst.
