A composition formed from a high surface area alumina and having a low-angular particle shape; and at least one catalytically active metal. The support has a pore, a total pore volume, and a pore size distribution; the pore size distribution shows at least two pore diameter peaks, each peak having a maximum; the first peak is about 200 nm Having a first maximum value of pore diameter above, the second peak having a second maximum value of pore diameter less than about 200 nm; and about 5% of the total pore volume of the support The above is included in the first peak of the pore diameter.
