Abstract

CuGa<italic>x</italic> alloy nanoparticles supported on SiO<sub>2</sub> can be obtained by surface organometallic chemistry. This catalyst is active and selective for the hydrogenation of CO<sub>2</sub> to CH<sub>3</sub>OH, related to the formation of an optimal interface between Cu and Ga<sup>III</sup>O<italic>x</italic>.
