A 1 % w/w alumina‐supported gold catalyst is described that is prepared from the impregnation of alumina with a solution of ammonium tetraazidoaurate(III), NH4[Au(N3)4]. Decomposition of the azide precursor leads to a residue‐free catalyst comprised of well‐dispersed gold particles. This novel material is tested for propyne hydrogenation using pulse‐flow techniques and displays 100 % selectivity to the partial hydrogenation product, propene, albeit in the presence of a large retention of hydrocarbon by the catalyst. The latter characteristic is associated with a support‐mediated deactivation pathway. Comparing catalytic performance with a 1.45 % w/w Au/TiO2reference catalyst indicates that chlorine‐free precursor compounds are not required to enhance catalytic activity for this particular reaction.
