Activated carbon supported gold nanoparticles (Au/C) were prepared by a chemical reduction process using NaBH4as a reducing agent. The characterization of transmission electron microscope indicated that the Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) in the Au/C catalyst were highly well dispersed on the carbon support. The catalytic activity of the Au/C catalyst for the methanol electrooxidation (MEO) was investigated by the cyclic voltammetry (CV). The results displayed that the Au/C catalyst exhibited a favorable catalytic activity towards the MEO in alkaline solution. Moreover, the competitive adsorption between OH-and CH3OH on the surface of the AuNPs in the Au/C catalyst existed in the course of the MEO. Based on this competitive adsorption, the mechanism of the MEO on the Au/C catalyst was further investigated.

Aliphatic amines react sluggishly with dimethyl carbonate (DMC) to give a mixture of N-methylation and carbamoylation. Nanoparticulated ceria as catalyst increases, in general, conversion and selectivity toward carbamoylation. This increase in catalytic activity and selectivity toward carbamoylation is even increased by deposition of Au nanoparticles on ceria. However, in contrast to aromatic amines for which a complete selectivity toward carbamoylation using ceria-supported Au nanoparticles can be achieved, the catalytic carbamoylation of aliphatic amines by ceria-supported Au nanoparticles occurs only with moderate selectivity.
