| abstract |
The invention relates to the synthesis of vinyl acetate monomers, in particular in the hydrogenation of hydrocarbons, such as the selective hydrogenation of polyunsaturated hydrocarbon compounds, or in the oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes, ketones or carboxylic acids. A method for producing a highly selective catalyst is provided. A shell catalyst containing one or more metal compounds out of chloride-free Pd, Pt, Ag and Au in an outer shell, and intermediate firing between application of a precursor compound and temperature treatment Manufacturing method not performed.
