The effects of the deposition order of gold and silver, and the nature of the support modifying additives and redox pretreatments on the catalytic properties of the bimetallic Au-Ag catalysts were studied. Catalysts were characterized by low-temperature nitrogen adsorption\u2013desorption, energy dispersive spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. It was found that pretreatments with hydrogen and oxygen at 300 \u00b0C significantly decreased the activity of AuAg catalysts (silver was deposited first) and had little effect on the catalytic properties of AgAu samples (gold was deposited first). The density functional theory method demonstrated that the adsorption energy of 1-octanol increased for all positively charged AuxAgyq (x + y = 10, with a charge of q = 0 or +1) clusters compared with the neutral counterparts. Lanthanum oxide was a very effective promoter for both monometallic and bimetallic gold and silver catalysts in the studied process.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/catal11070799","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,30]],"date-time":"2021-06-30T10:03:19Z","timestamp":1625047399000},"page":"799","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Effect of the Metal Deposition Order on Structural, Electronic and Catalytic Properties of TiO2-Supported Bimetallic Au-Ag Catalysts in 1-Octanol Selective Oxidation"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"11","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2877-3684","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yulia","family":"Kotolevich","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Centro de Nanociencias y Nanotecnolog\u00eda, Universidad Nacional Aut\u00f3noma de M\u00e9xico, Ensenada 22800, Mexico"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2842-2542","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ekaterina","family":"Pakrieva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Research School of Chemistry & Applied Biomedical Sciences, National Research Tomsk Polytechnic University, 634050 Tomsk, Russia"},{"name":"Instituto de Cat\u00e1lisis y Petroleoqu\u00edmica, Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Cient\u00edficas, Marie Curie 2, 28049 Madrid, Spain"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5150-6787","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ekaterina","family":"Kolobova","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Research School of Chemistry & Applied Biomedical Sciences, National Research Tomsk Polytechnic University, 634050 Tomsk, Russia"}]},{"given":"Mario H.","family":"Far\u00edas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centro de Nanociencias y Nanotecnolog\u00eda, Universidad Nacional Aut\u00f3noma de M\u00e9xico, Ensenada 22800, Mexico"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0929-3535","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nina","family":"Bogdanchikova","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centro de Nanociencias y Nanotecnolog\u00eda, Universidad Nacional Aut\u00f3noma de M\u00e9xico, Ensenada 22800, Mexico"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7479-215X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Vicente","family":"Cort\u00e9s Corber\u00e1n","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Cat\u00e1lisis y Petroleoqu\u00edmica, Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Cient\u00edficas, Marie Curie 2, 28049 Madrid, Spain"}]},{"given":"Daria","family":"Pichugina","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Chemistry, Lomonosov Moscow State University, 1-3 Leninskiye Gory, GSP-1, 119991 Moscow, Russia"}]},{"given":"Nadezhda","family":"Nikitina","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Chemistry, Lomonosov Moscow State University, 1-3 Leninskiye Gory, GSP-1, 119991 Moscow, Russia"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9913-4671","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"S\u00f3nia A.
