An Rh/AlO(OH) catalyst was prepared by a sol-gel method. This catalyst showed an excellent catalytic performance for the complete hydrogenation of quinoline to decahydroquinoline at relatively mild conditions. The growth of Rh-particle size and the decrease in the number of surface hydroxyl groups during heat treatment resulted in a significant decrease in catalytic properties. The excellent catalytic performance of the fresh Rh/AlO(OH) was attributed to the cooperation between the hydroxyl groups on the support and on the active metal centers.
