Abstract
The core and the ligand shell of metal nanoclusters (MNCs) have an influential role in modulating their spectroscopic signatures and catalytic properties. The aspect of electrostatic interactions to regulate the catalytic properties of MNCs has not been comprehensively addressed to date. Our present work conclusively delineates the role of the metal core and the electrostatic surface of MNCs involved in the reduction of nitroarenes. A facile surface modification of mercaptosuccinic acid (MSA)-templated AgNCs has been selectively achieved through Mg2+ ions (Mg-AgNCs). Microscopic studies suggest that the size of Mg-AgNCs is ∼3.3 nm, which is considerably higher than that of MSA-templated AgNCs (∼1.75 nm), confirming the formation of a nano-assembled structure. Our spectroscopic and microscopic experiments revealed that the negatively charged AgNCs efficiently catalyze the reduction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) with a rate constant of 0.23 ± 0.01 min-1. However, upon surface modification, the catalytic efficiency almost doubles due to the formation of Mg-AgNCs. Catalysis through AgNCs and Mg-AgNCs collectively portrays the role of the core and electrostatic surfaces. Furthermore, the role of electrostatic interaction has been substantiated by varying the ionic strength of the medium, as well as employing different molecular systems. A quantitative assessment of the Debye screening length asserts the correlation between the ionic strength of the medium and the role of electrostatic interactions involved herein. This highly enhanced catalytic aspect has been utilized for the real sample analysis, wherein AgNCs unexpectedly outperform Mg-AgNCs. This approach of real sample analysis also emanates the role of electrostatics involved. This comprehensive investigation represents the influential role of the core and ligand shell of MNCs as well as the role of electrostatics on its catalytic activities, which is relevant for the rational design of highly efficient catalysts.

Abstract
A novel, unique, highly effective, and recyclable heterogeneous catalyst, diethyl imidazolium hexafluorophosphate ionic liquid supported metal-organic framework ([DEIm][PF6]@MOF-5), has been synthesized using a simple impregnation method at ambient temperature. Characterization of the catalyst was done through various techniques such as Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), energy dispersive X-ray, X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), elemental mapping, Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) analyses. The kinetic study has shown the high catalytic performance of [DEIm][PF6]@MOF-5 for the reduction of 4-nitrophenol (NP) compared to other catalysts. The catalyst also exhibited efficient electrochemical activity toward 4-NP reduction. The catalyst was recyclable for more than seven cycles without any significant loss in its catalytic performance. The recycled catalyst was further studied using XRD, FTIR, SEM, and TGA analyses to investigate the structural changes that occurred during the reaction. The catalyst maintained its structural integrity even after seven cycles.

Abstract
The conversion of organic pollutants to value-added chemicals has been considered as a sustainable approach to solve environmental problems. However, it is still a challenge to construct a suitable heterogeneous catalyst that can synchronously achieve the enrichment and activation of organic pollutants (such as 4-nitrophenol, 4-NP). Here, an organic-inorganic hybrid catalyst (CeO2/Ni-MOF) was successfully fabricated for efficiently reducing 4-NP to 4-aminophenol (4-AP) with water as the hydrogen source. Based on the synergistic effect of Ni-MOF (adsorption action) and CeO2 (active sites), CeO2/Ni-MOF could achieve a reaction rate of 1.102 μmol min-1 mg-1 with an ultrahigh Faraday efficiency (FE) (99.9%) and conversion (97.6%). In addition, the catalytic mechanism of 4-NP reduction over CeO2/Ni-MOF was elaborated in depth. This work presents a new avenue for the effective reduction of pollutants and provides a new strategy for designing high-performance catalysts for rare-earth metals.

Abstract
Cobalt oxide nanoparticles (6 nm) supported both inside and outside of hollow carbon spheres (HCSs) were synthesized by using two different polymer templates. The oxidation of benzyl alcohol was used as a model reaction to evaluate the catalysts. PXRD studies indicated that the Co oxidation state varied for the different catalysts due to reduction of the Co by the carbon, and a metal oxidation step prior to the benzyl alcohol oxidation enhanced the catalytic activity. The metal loading influenced the catalytic efficiency, and the activity decreased with increasing metal loading, possibly due to pore filling effects. The catalysts showed similar activity and selectivity (to benzaldehyde) whether placed inside or outside the HCS (63 % selectivity at 50 % conversion). No poisoning was observed due to product build up in the HCS.

Abstract
We demonstrate for the first time the in-situ synthesis of Pd nanocubes (PdNC) on nitrogen-doped reduced graphene oxide (NRGO) for facile organic transformations wherein the cubic morphology of Pd can only be realized by precision-controlled acid additions in the tune of 0.02 pH variations in the reaction medium. Due to the intimate contact arising from atom-by-atom addition of Pd on NRGO, the composite has exhibited a pronounced catalyst to support charge transfer effect, shift in the d-band center, and lowering of charge-transfer resistance when compared with PdNC-NRGO ex-situ composites prepared by mixing of the preformed components of PdNC and NRGO or PdNCs alone. The activities of these catalysts were tested for the Suzuki coupling and nitroarene reduction reactions using water as an industry-friendly solvent. In both, the in-situ deposited sample exhibited substantially higher catalytic activity as well as stability when compared with an ex-situ sample or pure PdNCs. We show that a very high turnover frequency of ~31300 h-1 and ~900 h-1 are achievable by using the in-situ deposited PdNC-NRGO composite for Suzuki coupling reactions and nitroarene reduction respectively, better than the state-of-the-art catalysts developed recently, in addition to high recyclability.

Thiourea-bridged organosiloxane is used to synthesize a periodic mesoporous organosilica (PMO). Since this PMO has an S-enriched surface, owing to thiourea functional groups, it exhibits strong coordination toward Pt ions, and it shows a high tunability in the Pt nanoparticles size. This hybrid mesoporous material is employed as a catalyst in the efficient reduction reaction of 4-nitrophenol to 4-aminophenol at room temperature in an aqueous media.

Abstract
In this study, we have reported nitrogen-doped graphite C coated Co nanocomposite (Co@CN) catalysts synthesized by one-step arc discharge method. The surface compositions, morphologies and the catalytic properties of the Co@CN nanocomposites were studied minutely. The results reveal that the prepared Co@CN nanocomposites have typical core-shell structure and show highly efficient catalytic performance in a reduction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP), rhodamine and methylene blue. Their rate constant (Kapp) is 0.074 s-1 in a reduction of 4-NP, which is much higher than that of reported transition metal-based catalysts. Moreover, the overpotential of Co@CN is only 96 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm-2 in alkaline solution, showing high electrocatalytic activities in the hydrogen evolution reaction. The excellent synergistic effect between nitrogen-doped graphite C shell and magnetic Co core enables the Co@CN nanocomposites catalysts to hold abundant active sites and to transmit rapidly electron ability, resulting in Co@CN nanocomposite catalysts having a highly efficient catalytic nature.

Synthesis of silver particles stabilized by a bifunctional SiHx–NHy–PMHS oligomer as recyclable nanocatalysts for the catalytic reduction of 4-nitrophenol. RSC Adv 2019; 9:31013-31020. [PMID: 35529395 PMCID: PMC9072560 DOI: 10.1039/c9ra04711e] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2019] [Accepted: 08/28/2019] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Bifunctional oligomers with both reducing and stabilizing functionalities were prepared and successfully applied to the preparation of silver colloids of around 2 nm size without employing a strong stabilizer such as S and P, which was quite difficult to achieve. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) were performed to determine the morphology and particle size of the Ag colloids. UV-vis spectroscopy and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) were implemented to investigate the oxidation state of the Ag colloids. Synthesis parameters such as the density control of the ligating functionalities, the propinquity of the reducing and stabilizing groups, the extent of ligand stabilization and the reducing rates were found to have important effects on the formation and stabilization of Ag colloids. The as-synthesized Ag colloids were very stable even after being deposited on silica; then, they were subjected to calcination to get rid of the organics, which afforded Ag NPs (1.9–3.5 nm) on silica with narrow size distribution. These Ag NPs performed excellently in catalytic 4-nitrophenol reduction with conversion of up to 98% within 10 min. Furthermore, the Ag nanoparticles were quite stable and exhibited excellent reusability for seven successive reaction cycles without obvious decay. The straightforward synthesis of the ultra-small and stable Ag NPs has the potential for applications in the synthesis of other supported late transition metals. A novel strategy using bifunctional SiHx–NHy–PMHS without using strong stabilizers was applied to synthesize Ag NPs of around 2 nm size.![]()

Abstract
We report a simple synthesis process to prepare well-dispersed Pt nanoparticles incorporated in mesoporous carbon spheres. By manipulating the relative ratio of Pt precursor and resorcinol-formaldehyde resin (RF), Pt/carbon composites with different morphologies and Pt content were achieved. The as-prepared Pt/C composite materials show higher catalytic activity and reusability for the reduction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) than the Pt deposited commercial activated carbon (Pt/AC), which can be ascribed to the high dispersion of Pt nanoparticles in the carbon spheres. We report a simple synthesis process to prepare well-dispersed Pt nanoparticles incorporated in mesoporous carbon spheres.![]()

Abstract
This paper presents a facile, rapid, and controllable procedure for the recovery of trace Ag+ ions and in situ assembly of well dispersed Ag nanoparticles on chitosan-TiO2 composites through bioaffinity adsorption followed by photocatalytic reduction. The prepared Ag nanoparticles are proven to be efficient and recyclable nanocatalysts for the reduction of 4-nitrophenol to 4-aminophenol in the presence of NaBH4. Well dispersed quasi-spherical Ag NPs are synthesized in 20 min in the designed inner-irradiated photocatalytic system under a wide range of Ag+ concentrations (50-200 mg l-1), temperatures (10 °C-25 °C) conditions, and UV or visible light irradiation. The synthesized Ag NPs can catalyze the reduction of 4-nitrophenol by NaBH4 at 100% conversion in 120 min and preserve the catalytic activity in five successive cycles. This procedure for trace Ag+ ions recovery and Ag NPs assembly has the potential to be scaled up for the mass production of recyclable Ag nanocatalysts. The present work provides a green and efficient procedure for the conversion of hazardous 4-nitrophenol to industrially important 4-aminophenol and also sheds a light on designing scaled-up procedures for treating high volumes of wastewater with dilute heavy metals to produce recyclable metallic nanocatalysts in aqueous systems.

Abstract
Novel fluffy smoke like mesoporous N-doped carbon (mNC) was prepared through a facile one-pot carbonization method using the low-cost melamine and polyacrylonitrile as the precursor materials. The obtained mNC material exhibits a high surface area, rich nitrogen content and can be used as an ideal catalyst support to fabricate noble metal modified nanocatalysts. Here, small Ag nanoparticles were supported on the mNC material with high dispersion to give the Ag/mNC nanocatalyst. The obtained Ag/mNC nanocatalyst was used in the catalytic reduction of nitroarenes and showed excellent catalytic activity, probably due to the small Ag NPs which highly dispersed on the fluffy mNC material that can enhance the accessibility and mass transfer, and subsequently enhance the catalytic activity. It is worth mentioning that, in the catalytic reduction of nitroarenes with halogenated groups, almost no dehalogenation phenomenon can be observed, which implies the superior catalytic chemoselectivity of the Ag/mNC nanocatalyst.

Abstract
Ordered mesoporous carbon (OMC)-metal composites have attracted great attention owing to their combination of high surface area, controlled pore size distribution and physicochemical properties of metals. Herein, we report the cobalt nanoparticles/ordered mesoporous carbon (CoNPs@OMC) composite prepared by a one-step carbonization/reduction process assisted by a hydrothermal pre-reaction. The CoNPs@OMC composite presents a high specific surface area of 544m2g-1, and the CoNPs are uniformly imbedded or confined in the ordered mesoporous carbon matrix. When used as a non-precious metal-containing catalyst for hydrogenation reduction of p-nitrophenol and nitrobenzene, it demonstrates high efficiency and good cycling stability. Furthermore, the CoNPs@OMC composite can be directly used to catalyze the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis for the high-pressure CO hydrogenation, and presents a good catalytic selectivity for C5+ hydrocarbons. The excellent catalytic performance of the CoNPs@OMC composite can be ascribed to synergistic effect between the high specific surface area, mesoporous structure and well-imbedded CoNPs in the carbon matrix.
