Platinum Particles

Colloidal and sol-gel procedures have been used to prepare heterogeneous catalysts consisting of platinum metal particles with narrow size distributions and well defined shapes dispersed on high-surface-area silica supports. The overall procedure was developed in three stages. First, tetrahedral and cubic colloidal metal particles were prepared in solution by using a procedure derived from that reported by El-Sayed and coworkers [Ahmadi TS, Wang ZL, Green TC, Henglein A, El-Sayed MA (1996) Science 272:1924–1926]. This method allowed size and shape to be controlled independently. Next, the colloidal particles were dispersed onto high-surface-area solids. Three approaches were attempted: (i) in situ reduction of the colloidal mixture in the presence of the support, (ii) in situ sol-gel synthesis of the support in the presence of the colloidal particles, and (iii) direct impregnation of the particles onto the support. Finally, the resulting catalysts were activated and tested for the promotion of carbon–carbon double-bond cis-trans isomerization reactions in olefins. Our results indicate that the selectivity of the reaction may be controlled by using supported catalysts with appropriate metal particle shapes.

Real Time Information

Low temperature heterogeneous catalytic routes for polymers are of considerable interest in the chemical sciences and technology because they are economical and environmentally beneficial. However such routes have been difficult because of an incomplete understanding of process control and low yields. Currently, hydrogenation of aliphatic dintriles in solvents is used in the chemical industry to manufacture the corresponding diamenes which are subsequently reacted with adipic acid solutions and polymerized to produce the polyamide, nylon (6,6).Here we report an alternative, low temperature heterogeneous catalytic process for the polymerization reactions using novel environmental-HRTEM (EHREM) in liquid environments. EHREM under simulated reaction conditions provides direct, in situ real-time information on the dynamic structural and chemical changes and reaction modes of operation. We prepared high surface area heterogeneous catalysts including cobalt-ruthenium nanoclusters supported on rutile titania using a single step sol-gel technique, (shown in Fig. 1).

Recent years mesoporous bioactive glasses (MBGs) have become important biomaterials because of their high surface area and the superior bioactivity. Various studies have reported that when MBGs implanted in a human body, hydroxyl apatite layers, constituting the main inorganic components of human bones, will form on the MBG surfaces to increase the bioactivity. Therefore, MBGs have been widely applied in the fields of tissue regeneration and drug delivery. The sol-gel process has replaced the conventional glasses process for MBG synthesis because of the advantages of low contamination, chemical flexibility and lower calcination temperature. In the sol-gel process, several types of surfactants were mixed with MBG precursor solutions to generate micelle structures. Afterwards, these micelles decompose to form porous structures after calcination. Although calcination is significant for contamination, crystalline and surface area in MBG, to the best of the authors’ knowledge, only few systematic studies related to calcination were reported. This study correlated the calcination parameters and the microstructure of MBGs. Microstructure evaluation was characterized by transmission electron microscopy and nitrogen adsorption/desorption. The experimental results show that the surface area and the pore size of MBGs decreased with the increasing of the calcination temperature, and decreased dramatically at 800°C due to the formation of crystalline phases.

: Catalysis is the multidisciplinary field involving many areas of chemistry, notably in organometallic chemistry and materials science. It has great applications in synthesis of many industrially applicable compounds such as fuels and fine chemicals. The activity and selectivity are a key issue in catalysis that generally allied to high surface area. The current research activities mainly deal with the homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis. Homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis have certain drawbacks which restricts their application to great extent but have their own advantages. Hence, it has a predominant concern of current research to find out an alternate to overcome their drawbacks. Therefore, it is highly desirable to find a catalytic protocol that offers high selectivity and excellent product yield with quick and easy recovery. Along with their various applications as alternatives to conventional bulk materials nanomaterial have established its great role in different industrial and scientific applications. Nanocatalysis has emerged as new alternative to the conventional homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis. The nanomaterials are responsible to enhance surface area of the catalyst, which ultimately increases the catalyst reactants contacts. In addition, it acts as robust material and has high surface area like heterogeneous catalysts. Insolubility of such nanomaterial in reaction medium makes them easily separable, hence, catalyst can be easily separate from the product. Hence, it has been proven that nanocatalysts behave like homogeneous as well as heterogeneous catalysts which work as a bridge between the conventional catalytic systems. Considering these merits; researchers has paid their attention towards applications of nanocatalyst in several organic reactions. This review article focused on the catalytic applications of metal nanoparticles (MNPs) such as Pd, Ag, Au, Cu, Pt in ligand free coupling reactions. In addition, it covers applications of bimetallic and multimetallic nanoparticles in ligand free coupling reactions.
