Abstract
Catalysts supported on -Al2O3 were prepared from [Re2Pt(CO)12], and from Pt (NH3)4(NO3)2 and NH4ReO4. The former samples were characterized by infrared and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopies (XPS) and by temperature-programmed reduction (TPR); the latter were characterized by TPR. [Re2Pt(CO)12] was initially chemisorbed on the -Al2O3 surface. Upon treatment in H2 at
