Abstract

A catalyst for hydrogenation, hydroformylation, olefin oxidation and similar reactions is prepared by treating activated carbon first with a volatile acid and then with a basic substance to provide a suitable support for the catalyst, and then adsorbing onto such support a coordination complex of a transition metal. The adsorption of the catalyst onto the support may be effected in situ during the hydrogenation, hydroformylation, oxidation, etc. reaction.
