Hierarchical Y and USY zeolites designed by post - synthetic strategies

Microwave-assisted green synthesis of Gold nanoparticles and Its catalytic activity

The present work demonstrated a green approach of synthesis of gold nanoparticles using Eupatorium odoratum leaf extract as reducing and stabilizing agent assisted with microwave irradiation. Effects of various concentrations of leaf extract on the preparation of gold nanoparticles have been investigated and it was monitored by undertaking UV-vis spectroscopic studies. The experimental results ...

Enhancement in the catalytic activity of Pd/USY in the heck reaction induced by H2 bubbling.

Pd was loaded on ultra stable Y (USY) zeolites prepared by steaming NH(4)-Y zeolite under different conditions. Heck reactions were carried out over the prepared Pd/USY. We found that H₂ bubbling was effective in improving not only the catalytic activity of Pd/USY, but also that of other supported Pd catalysts and Pd(OAc)₂. Moreover, the catalytic activity of Pd/USY could be optimized by choosi...

Fabrication of thermally stable and active bimetallic Au-Ag nanoparticles stabilized on inner wall of mesoporous silica shell.

A general method has been developed for the fabrication of highly dispersed and thermally stable bimetallic Au-Ag nanoparticles (NPs) stabilized on the inner wall of a mesoporous silica shell. In our approach, gold particles were formed in the first step on carbon spheres decorated with Sn(2+) cations. Upon Ag(+) adsorption and reduction by l-ascorbic acid in the second step, specific nanoparti...

comparison of catalytic activity of heteropoly compounds in the synthesis of bis(indolyl)alkanes.

heteropoly acids (hpa) and their salts have advantages as catalysts which make them both economically and environmentally attractive, strong br?nsted acidity, exhibiting fast reversible multi-electron redox transformations under rather mild conditions, very high solubility in polar solvents, fairly high thermal stability in the solid states, and efficient oxidizing ability, so that they are imp...
