Dehydrogenation of Cycloalkanes over N-Doped Carbon-Supported Catalysts: The Effects of Active Component and Molecular Structure of the Substrate

Efficient dehydrogenation of cycloalkanes under mild conditions is the key to large-scale application of cycloalkanes as a hydrogen storage medium. In this paper, a series of active metals loaded on nitrogen-doped carbon (M/CN, M = Pt, Pd, Ir, Rh, Au, Ru, Ag, Ni, Cu) were prepared to learn the role...
