The gold nanoparticles with core diameter of 3.9-4.7 nm were stabilized with octanethiolate and dipyridylphosphinicamido undecanethiolate. Without varying the size of central Au cores, palladium complexes were immobilized onto these Au nanoparticles through chelation to the surface-bound dipyridyls. Hybrid catalysts of this type were dissolvable and precipitable, and their structures and reacti...

Experimental process The one-pot DKR of racemic 1-PE was carried out in a glass reactor with a magnetic stirring under microwave irradiation at a desired temperature. Typically, racemic 1-PE (0.10-0.4 mmol) and acyl donor (0.20-0.8 mmol) were firstly added into n-hexane (4.0 mL). And then, 20 mg of the core-shell bi-functional catalysts (Hβ-PDDA@CALB)MSs were added into the above-mentioned reac...

Merging nanoparticles with different functions into a single microsphere can exhibit profound impact on various applications. However, retaining the unique properties of each component after integration has proven to be a significant challenge. Our previous research demonstrated a facile method to incorporate magnetic nanoparticles into porous silica microspheres. Here, we report the fabricatio...

fischer-tropsch catalysts with high activity and selectivity for olefins were produced using mordenite type sio2/al2o3= 12, 20, 28, 62 zeolite supported iron carbonyl compounds and were characterized by x-ray powder diffraction. the adsorptionof volatile fe(co)5 on the support surface was carried out under vacuum at room temperature. reduction les were monitored by vibrating sample magnetometer...

alkanedisulfamic acid functionalized silica-coated magnetic nanoparticles (adsa-mnps) were used as effective, low-cost and reusable solid heterogeneous nanomagnetic catalysts for conversion of aldehydes and ketones to corresponding gem-dihydroperoxides and 1,2,4,5-tetraoxanes using aqueous hydrogen peroxide (30% w/w in h2o) at room temperature. these compounds are important key intermediates in...

in this research na-y was synthesized by hydrothermal method and used as support for preparation of sn/pt/na-y catalysts using two different tin precursors, bu3sn(cl) and sncl2.2h2o, by sequential impregnation, in which the pt  was deposited first and in the next step sn was deposited. the catalysts were characterized by h2 chemisorption, transmission electron microscopy (tem), scanning electro...

Metal-ceramic interfaces are important in applications as diverse as magnetic storage media and supported catalysts. It is very important to understand how the crystallography and microstructure of metallic films deposited onto ceramic substrates depend on growth and/or annealing conditions so that their physical properties (e.g. magnetic, electronic, etc.) can be tailored for specific applicat...

Nanoparticles of iron-cobalt have attracted great interest in recent years because of their unique physical and chemical properties because of their industrial importance in preparing magnetic recording materials, pigments, catalysts, etc. With an objective to develop magnetic materials with high saturation magnetization Fe-Co nanosysytems were synthesized by method of chemical reduction reacti...

catalysts with the formula of laco(1+x)o(3+δ), where 0 ≤ x ≤ 1, were studied for oxidation of co and c2h6 in a synthetic exhaust gas, comprising 6.0 % co and 0.2 % c2h6 in ar. ethane was selected as a model for hydrocarbons in the exhaust gas. the performance of catalysts is correlated to their properties, particularly their redox in oxidizing and reducing atmospheres. xrd patterns show perovsk...
