We for the first time report a facile, wet-chemical strategy for the high-yield (approximately 100%) synthesis of ultralong Pt-on-Pd bimetallic nanowires (NWs) with the cores being Pd NWs and the shells being made of dendritic Pt, which exhibit high surface area and enhanced electrocatalytic activity towards methanol oxidation reaction.

We report a solution phase synthesis of monodispersed mesoporous Pd nanoparticles (MPNs) with narrow particle size distributions. The average particle sizes can be controlled to a range of 25 nm to 42 nm, by utilizing cationic surfactants (as structure-directing agents) and triblock copolymers (as protective agents for controlled Pd deposition). The obtained MPNs exhibit very high electrocataly...

In the present article we show that, although reflux method is not common for synthesis of multicomponent MoVTeNbO catalysts, an optimized metallic precursors leads to...

Core-shell nanostructures are emerging as more important materials than alloy nanostructures and have much more interesting potential applications in various fields. In this work, we demonstrated the fast and facile synthesis of core-shell nanoparticles consisting of Pt thin layer as the shell and Ni nanoparticles as the cores. The described method herein is suitable for large-scale and low-cos...

Synthesis of mesoporous graphene materials by soft-template methods remains a great challenge, owing to the poor self-assembly capability of precursors and the severe agglomeration of graphene nanosheets. Herein, a micelle-template strategy to prepare porous graphene materials with controllable mesopores, high specific surface areas and large pore volumes is reported. By fine-tuning the synthes...

Substituted imidazoles are of interest because their useful biological activities. While several methods have been developed for the synthesis such compounds, some reported utilize corrosive or toxic catalysts. We report a bismuth (III) triflate catalyzed multicomponent 2,4,5-trisubstituted imidazoles. Bismuth compounds attractive from green chemistry perspective they remarkably non-toxic and n...

1,5-benzodiazepines are regarded as one of the most important classes of heterocyclic compounds as privileged structures and have vast range of applications in the field of medicine and chemistry. They are therefore attractive synthetic targets for organic and medicinal chemist. The current review article mainly covers the multicomponent green chemistry approaches for the synthesis of 1,5-benzo...

the development of multicomponent reactions (mcrs) designed to produce elaborate biologically active compounds has become an important area of research in organic, combinatorial, and medicinal chemistry. a comparative study of the synthesis of new bis-spiro-oxindolo(pyrrolizidines/pyrrolidines) ring systems by the cycloaddition of azomethine ylides generated by a decarboxylative route from sarc...
