In this work, different nitroaromatic compounds were successfully reduced to their corresponding aromatic amines with excellent conversion and selectivity in methanol at 50?°C by using Pd-Pt nanoparticles immobilized on the modified grapheme oxide (m-GO) and hydrogen as the reducing source. The catalytic efficiency of Pd and Pd-Pt loading on the modified GO was investigated for the reduction of various nitroaromatic compounds, and the Pd-Pt/m-GO system demonstrated the highest conversion and selectivity. The catalyst was characterized by different techniques including FT-IR, Raman, UV–Vis, XRD, BET, XPS, FESEM, EDS, and TEM. The metal nanoparticles with the size of less than 10?nm were uniformly distributed on the m-GO. The catalyst could be reused at least five times without losing activity, showing the stability of the catalyst structure. Finally, the efficiency of the prepared catalyst was compared with Pd-Pt/AC, and Pd-Pt/GO catalysts.
