Abstract: To reduce an OSC material, while maintaining necessary OSC capacity; and to improve heat resistance and reactivity of a precious metal. Proposed is an exhaust gas purifying catalyst which comprises a first catalyst layer that is formed on the surface of a substrate that is formed of a ceramic or a metal, and a second catalyst layer that is formed on the upper side of the first catalyst layer. The first catalyst layer comprises a precious metal, an OSC material and an alumina, and the OSC material and the alumina are comprised at a mass ratio of OSC material:alumina=1:7 to 1:3. The second catalyst layer comprises a precious metal, an OSC material and an alumina, and the OSC material and the alumina are comprised at a mass ratio of OSC material:alumina=1:1 to 10:0.

Abstract: Provided is a catalyst composition using other metals different from noble metals as a catalytic activity component and which has an excellent catalytic activity even after a thermal duration treatment. Provided are an exhaust gas purifying catalyst composition which includes ceria-zirconia particles with a feature in that a peak arising from (111) plane is divided into two peak tops in an XRD pattern and in which a transition metal including at least one of Cu, Cr, Fe, Mn, Co, Ni, and Ag is supported on the ceria-zirconia particles, and a catalyst using the exhaust gas purifying catalyst composition.

Abstract: A process for the preparation of glycosides such as methyl glucoside, butyl glucoside or the like in which a mono- or poly-saccharide is reacted with a mono- or polyhydric alcohol in the presence of a perfluorosulfonic acid resin as the catalyst.
