Preferably the porous Silica glass shows all characteristics a) to d), whereby the present 30 invention encompasses any possible combination of the preferred/more preferred/most preferred characteristics. Such porous Silica glasses are commercially available. An especially preferred one is sold under the trademark TRISOPERL® by the Schuller GmbH, Wertheim, Germany. TRISOPERL® is a porous Silica glass with an average particle size in the range of 100 to 200 μm, an average pore size of 54.47 nm, a specific surface of 93.72 m2/g and an average pore volume of 1255.5 mm3/g.
The catalyst according to the present invention may be used for the selective hydrogenation of terminal C≡C triple bonds to terminal C=C double bonds in the presence of the following functional groups: 0 alkyl: linear Ci_so alkyl, branched C3_so alkyl, C3_2o cycloalkyl, as well as alkylcycloalkyls and cycloalkylalkyls with 1 to 50 C-atoms; preferred are C1-20 alkyl - may it be linear (C1-20), branched (C3_2o) or cylic (C3_2o) or an alkylcycloalkyl (C4_2o) or a cycloalkylalkyl (C4_2o);
0 alkenyl: linear C2_50 alkenyl, branched C3_50 alkenyl; preferred are C2_2o alkenyl - may it be linear (C2_2o) or branched (C3-20);
0 heteroalkyl: i.e. non-aromatic carbon hydrogen moieties, preferred saturated carbon hydrogen moieties with 3 to 50 C atoms (preferably 3 to 30 C atoms) comprising one or more of the heteroatoms nitrogen and/or oxygen, such as ethers e.g. tetrahydrofuran and tetrahydropyran; 0 alkylaryl and aryl such as phenyl, to IyI, xylyl, mesityl, naphthyl etc., preferably having
6-17 C atoms;

0 amino (-NH2);
0 -SiR1R2R3, wherein R1, R2 and R3 are independently from each other alkyl (linear or branched C1-C6) or aryl or alkylaryl; preferably R1 = R2 = R3.
That means alkines RC=CH are hydrogenated to alkenes RHC=CH2, whereby R is a carbon hydrogen moiety optionally bearing a heteroatom O and/or N or several of them and/or the following functional groups as defined above: -OH, -NO2, -NH2, and -SiR^. Preferably R is selected from the group consisting of alkyl, alkenyl, aryl, alkylaryl, heteroaryl, - as defined above - which all may further bear one or more heteroatoms O and/or N, or further functional groups such as -OH, -NO2, -NH2, and -SiRj. Preferably the alkines are precursors of isoprenoid building blocks.
Thus, the present invention is also directed to such use, as well as to a process for the manufacture of alkenes comprising the step of hydrogenating alkines in the presence of a catalyst as defined above.
In general the hydrogenation may be carried out at a temperature in the range of O0C to 1500C and/or at a pressure in the range of 1 bar to 150 bar.
Preferred examples of such alkines and the corresponding alkenes are given in the following table:

Examples
The carrier used in the examples was TRISOPERL® sold by the Schuller GmbH,
Wertheim, Germany. TRISOPERL® is a porous Silica glass with an average particle size in the range of 100 to 200 μm, an average pore size of 54.47 nm, a specific surface of 93.72 m2/g and an average pore volume of 1255.5 mm3/g.

21 mg Pd(OAc)2 (0,09 mmol) were suspended in 50 mL of dichloromethane. 1 g of TRISOPERL® were added and the solvent was removed (bath temperature: 40 0C / pressure: 950 mbar). The carrier doped with Pd(OAc)2 was calcinated for 2 hours at 3000C in an oven (pre-heating of the oven for 20 minutes for 1000 W to 300 0C). The loading of the catalyst on the carrier was then ca. 1 weight-% Pd, i.e. 10 mg Pd onl g carrier.

The reaction mixture was stirred with 2000 rpm for 4 hours. The conversion was 99% and the yield was 89.6%, based on DIP.
Example 6: Hydrogenation of dehydroisophytol (DIP) to isophytol (IP) in a solvent 3.75 mmol of DIP were dissolved in 0.5 ml of ethyl acetate and hydrogenated at 500C and 21 bara in the presence of 100 mg of the catalyst as prepared according to example 1. A sample was taken after 1 hour reaction time and the yield and the selectivity determined with gas chromatography. The conversion was 93% based on DIP and the selectivity 91% based on IP.
