Abstract

The discrete molecular clusters of clusters, M1140[(CO)9Co3CCO2]6, M = Co, Zn undergo thermolysis with the production of highly porous solid materials. Evaluation of the catalytic properties of these materials has been investigated using the hydrogenation of 1,3- butadiene as a test reaction. These experiments suggest it is the unique structure of the porous materials that is responsible for the high activities and the selectivities observed.
