Abstract
The efficient and economic conversion of CO2 and renewable H2 into methanol has received intensive attention due to growing concern for anthropogenic CO2 emissions, particularly from fossil fuel combustion. Herein, we have developed a novel method for preparing Ni/In2O3 nanocatalysts by using porous MIL-68(In) and nickel(II) acetylacetonate (Ni(acac)2) as the dual precursors of In2O3 and Ni components, respectively. Combined with in-depth characterization analysis, it was revealed that the utilization of MIL-68(In) as precursors favored the good distribution of Ni nanoparticles (∼6.2 nm) on the porous In2O3 support and inhibited the metal sintering at high temperatures. The varied catalyst fabrication parameters were explored, indicating that the designed Ni/In2O3 catalyst (Ni content of 5 wt %) exhibited better catalytic performance than the compared catalyst prepared using In(OH)3 as a precursor of In2O3. The obtained Ni/In2O3 catalyst also showed excellent durability in long-term tests (120 h). However, a high Ni loading (31 wt %) would result in the formation of the Ni-In alloy phase during the CO2 hydrogenation which favored CO formation with selectivity as high as 69%. This phenomenon is more obvious if Ni and In2O3 had a strong interaction, depending on the catalyst fabrication methods. In addition, with the aid of in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, the Ni/In2O3 catalyst predominantly follows the formate pathway in the CO2 hydrogenation to methanol, with HCOO* and *H3CO as the major intermediates, while the small size of Ni particles is beneficial to the formation of formate species based on DFT calculation. This study suggests that the Ni/In2O3 nanocatalyst fabricated using metal-organic frameworks as precursors can effectively promote CO2 thermal hydrogenation to methanol.

Abstract
Heterostructuring colloidal nanocrystals into multicomponent modular constructs, where domains of distinct metal and semiconductor phases are interconnected through bonding interfaces, is a consolidated approach to advanced breeds of solution-processable hybrid nanomaterials capable of expressing richly tunable and even entirely novel physical-chemical properties and functionalities. To meet the challenges posed by the wet-chemical synthesis of metal-semiconductor nanoheterostructures and to overcome some intrinsic limitations of available protocols, innovative transformative routes, based on the paradigm of partial chemicalization, have recently been devised within the framework of the standard seeded-growth scheme. These techniques involve regiospecific replacement reactions on preformed nanocrystal substrates, thus holding great synthetic potential for programmable configurational diversification. This review article illustrates achievements so far made in the elaboration of metal-semiconductor nanoheterostructures with tailored arrangements of their component modules by means of conversion pathways that leverage on spatially controlled partial chemicalization of mono- and bi-metallic seeds. The advantages and limitations of these approaches are discussed within the context of the most plausible mechanisms underlying the evolution of the nanoheterostructures in liquid media. Representative physical-chemical properties and applications of chemicalization-derived metal-semiconductor nanoheterostructures are emphasized. Finally, prospects for developments in the field are outlined.

Abstract
Hydrogen evolution from water splitting is considered to be an important renewable clean energy source and alternative to fossil fuels for future energy sustainability. Photocatalytic and electrocatalytic water splitting is considered to be an effective method for the sustainable production of clean energy, H2. This perspective especially emphasizes research advances in the solution-assisted synthesis of transition metal chalcogenides for both photo and electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution applications. Transition metal chalcogenides (CdS, MoS2, WS2, TiS2, TaS2, ReS2, MoSe2, and WSe2) have received intensified research interest over the past two decades on account of their unique properties and great potential across a wide range of applications. The photocatalytic activity of transition metal chalcogenides can further be improved by elemental doping, heterojunction formation with noble metals (Au, Pt, etc.), non-chalcogenides (MoS2, In2S3, NiS1-X), morphological tuning, through various solution-assisted synthesis processes, including liquid-phase exfoliation, heat-up, hot-injection methods, hydrothermal/solvothermal routes and template-mediated synthesis processes. In this review we will discuss recent developments in transition metal chalcogenides (TMCs), the role of TMCs for hydrogen production and various strategies for surface functionalization to increase their activity, different synthesis methods, and prospects of TMCs for hydrogen evolution. We have included a brief discussion on the effect of surface hydrogen binding energy and Gibbs free energy change for HER in electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution.

Abstract
Carbon interaction with transition metal (TM) surfaces is a relevant topic in heterogeneous catalysis, either for its poisoning capability, for the recently attributed promoter role when incorporated in the subsurface, or for the formation of early TM carbides, which are increasingly used in catalysis. Herein, we present a high-throughput systematic study, adjoining thermodynamic plus kinetic evidence obtained by extensive density functional calculations on surface models (324 diffusion barriers located on 81 TM surfaces in total), which provides a navigation map of these interactions in a holistic fashion. Correlation between previously proposed electronic descriptors and ad/absorption energies has been tested, with the d-band center being found the most suitable one, although machine learning protocols also underscore the importance of the surface energy and the site coordination number. Descriptors have also been tested for diffusion barriers, with ad/absorption energies and the difference in energy between minima being the most appropriate ones. Furthermore, multivariable, polynomial, and random forest regressions show that both thermodynamic and kinetic data are better described when using a combination of different descriptors. Therefore, looking for a single perfect descriptor may not be the best quest, while combining different ones may be a better path to follow.

Abstract
Engineering subcellular organization in microbes shows great promise in addressing bottlenecks in metabolic engineering efforts; however, rules guiding selection of an organization strategy or platform are lacking. Here, we study compartment morphology as a factor in mediating encapsulated pathway performance. Using the 1,2-propanediol utilization microcompartment (Pdu MCP) system from Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium LT2, we find that we can shift the morphology of this protein nanoreactor from polyhedral to tubular by removing vertex protein PduN. Analysis of the metabolic function between these Pdu microtubes (MTs) shows that they provide a diffusional barrier capable of shielding the cytosol from a toxic pathway intermediate, similar to native MCPs. However, kinetic modeling suggests that the different surface area to volume ratios of MCP and MT structures alters encapsulated pathway performance. Finally, we report a microscopy-based assay that permits rapid assessment of Pdu MT formation to enable future engineering efforts on these structures.

Abstract
Morphology-control, as a promising and effective strategy, is widely implemented to change surface atomic active sites and thus enhance the intrinsic electrocatalytic activity and selectivity. As a typical n-type semiconductor, a series of bismuth vanadate samples with tunable morphologies of clavate, fusiform, flowered, bulky, and nanoparticles were prepared to investigate the morphology effect. Among all the synthesized samples, the clavate shaped BiVO4 with high index facets of (112), (301), and (200) exhibited reduced extrinsic pseudocapacitance and enhanced redox response, which is beneficial for tackling the sluggish voltammetric response of the traditional nanoparticle on the electrode surface. Benefiting from the large surface-active area and favorable ion diffusion channels, the clavate shaped BiVO4 exhibited the best electrochemical sensing performance for paracetamol with a linear response in the range of 0.5–100 µmol and a low detection limit of 0.2 µmol. The enhanced electrochemical detection of paracetamol by bismuth vanadate nanomaterials with controllable shapes indicates their potential for applications as electrochemical sensors.

Abstract
A critical review of different prominent nanotechnologies adapted to catalysis is provided, with focus on how they contribute to the improvement of selectivity in heterogeneous catalysis. Ways to modify catalytic sites range from the use of the reversible or irreversible adsorption of molecular modifiers to the immobilization or tethering of homogeneous catalysts and the development of well-defined catalytic sites on solid surfaces. The latter covers methods for the dispersion of single-atom sites within solid supports as well as the use of complex nanostructures, and it includes the post-modification of materials via processes such as silylation and atomic layer deposition. All these methodologies exhibit both advantages and limitations, but all offer new avenues for the design of catalysts for specific applications. Because of the high cost of most nanotechnologies and the fact that the resulting materials may exhibit limited thermal or chemical stability, they may be best aimed at improving the selective synthesis of high value-added chemicals, to be incorporated in organic synthesis schemes, but other applications are being explored as well to address problems in energy production, for instance, and to design greener chemical processes. The details of each of these approaches are discussed, and representative examples are provided. We conclude with some general remarks on the future of this field.

Abstract
More than 1 million workers are exposed routinely to carcinogenic benzene, contained in various consumer products (e.g., gasoline, rubbers, and dyes) and released from combustion of organics (e.g., tobacco). Despite strict limits (e.g., 50 parts per billion (ppb) in the European Union), routine monitoring of benzene is rarely done since low-cost sensors lack accuracy. This work presents a compact, battery-driven device that detects benzene in gas mixtures with unprecedented selectivity (>200) over inorganics, ketones, aldehydes, alcohols, and even challenging toluene and xylene. This can be attributed to strong Lewis acid sites on a packed bed of catalytic WO3 nanoparticles that prescreen a chemoresistive Pd/SnO2 sensor. That way, benzene is detected down to 13 ppb with superior robustness to relative humidity (RH, 10-80%), fulfilling the strictest legal limits. As proof of concept, benzene is quantified in indoor air in good agreement (R2 ≥ 0.94) with mass spectrometry. This device is readily applicable for personal exposure assessment and can assist the implementation of low-emission zones for sustainable environments.

Abstract
Metallic nanocrystals (NCs) can be synthesized with tailored nonequilibrium shapes to enhance desired properties, e.g., octahedral fcc metal NCs optimize catalytic activity associated with {111} facets. However, maintenance of optimized properties requires stability against thermal reshaping. Thus, we analyze the reshaping of truncated fcc metal octahedra mediated by surface diffusion using a stochastic atomistic-level model with energetic input parameters for Pd. The model describes NC thermodynamics by an effective nearest-neighbor interaction and includes a realistic treatment of diffusive hopping for undercoordinated surface atoms. Kinetic Monte Carlo simulation reveals that the effective barrier, Eeff, for the initial stage of reshaping is strongly tied to the degree of truncation of the vertices in the synthesized initial octahedral shapes. This feature is elucidated via exact analytic determination of the energy variation along the optimal reshaping pathway at low-temperature (T), which involves transfer of atoms from truncated {100} vertex facets to form new layers on {111} side facets. Deviations from predictions of the low-T analysis due to entropic effects are more prominent for higher T and larger NC sizes.

Abstract
Core-shell structured nanomaterials with delicate architectures have attracted considerable attention for realizing multifunctional responses and harnessing multiple interfaces for enhanced functionalities. Here, we report a controllable synthesis of core-shell structured Mn3O4@SiO2NB nanomaterials consisting of Mn3O4 nanorods covered with a shell of SiO2 nanobubbles. A series of Mn3O4@SiO2NB catalysts with tunable secondary structures can be synthesized by simply tuning the feeding ratio and the modification conditions. The as-synthesized Mn3O4@SiO2NB catalysts exhibit excellent catalytic performance in the degradation of methylene blue (MB) because the Fenton-type reaction between Mn3O4 and H2O2 is confined in an MB-rich environment created by the SiO2 nanobubble shell. The confined Fenton-type catalysis maximizes the contact of MB molecules with the reactive oxygen species and significantly promotes the degradation efficiency of MB. Under optimal conditions, Mn3O4@SiO2NB-0.4 can reach a degradation efficiency of 92% at room temperature and neutral pH within 12 min, which outperforms most reported Mn-based catalysts.

Abstract
Cu(I) catalysts were studied for the synthesis of a propargylamine via A3-coupling of aldehyde, amine, and alkyne, under solvent-free and low loading conditions, using batch microwave or flow thermal heating. We explored ultra-low loading conditions with Cu(I) salts as fast and active catalysts featuring turnover frequencies (TOFs) above 105 h−1. Well-defined octahedral and cubic Cu2O microcrystals were also successfully applied and compared with this reaction. Both types of microcrystals exhibited excellent catalytic activities within minutes, via in situ generation of low dose of Cu(I) ions within the reaction medium, to achieve TON beyond 2000 and recycling up to 10 times in a flow reactor. The study of the catalytic system demonstrated that the activity was surface-structure dependent and allowed for the design of low Cu contamination A3-coupling systems, affording a product at the decigram scale, with Cu contamination below FDA recommendations for drug synthesis, without the need for a purification procedure.

Abstract
Cu–ZnO–Al2O3 catalysts are used as the industrial catalysts for water gas shift (WGS) and CO hydrogenation to methanol reactions. Herein, via a comprehensive experimental and theoretical calculation study of a series of ZnO/Cu nanocrystals inverse catalysts with well-defined Cu structures, we report that the ZnO–Cu catalysts undergo Cu structure-dependent and reaction-sensitive in situ restructuring during WGS and CO hydrogenation reactions under typical reaction conditions, forming the active sites of CuCu(100)-hydroxylated ZnO ensemble and CuCu(611)Zn alloy, respectively. These results provide insights into the active sites of Cu–ZnO catalysts for the WGS and CO hydrogenation reactions and reveal the Cu structural effects, and offer the feasible guideline for optimizing the structures of Cu–ZnO–Al2O3 catalysts. Identification of active sites of a catalyst is the Holy Grail in heterogeneous catalysis. Here, the authors successfully identify the CuCu(100)- hydroxylated ZnO ensemble and CuCu(611)Zn alloy as the active sites of Cu-ZnO catalysts for water gas shift and CO hydrogenation reactions, respectively.

Abstract
A heterogeneous catalyst is a backbone of modern sustainable green industries; and understanding the relationship between its structure and properties is the key for its advancement. Recently, many upscaling synthesis strategies for the development of a variety of respectable control atomically precise heterogeneous catalysts are reported and explored for various important applications in catalysis for energy and environmental remediation. Precise atomic-scale control of catalysts has allowed to significantly increase activity, selectivity, and in some cases stability. This approach has proved to be relevant in various energy and environmental related technologies such as fuel cell, chemical reactors for organic synthesis, and environmental remediation. Therefore, this review aims to critically analyze the recent progress on single-atom catalysts (SACs) application in oxygen reduction reaction, oxygen evolution reaction, hydrogen evolution reaction, and chemical and/or electrochemical organic transformations. Finally, opportunities that may open up in the future are summarized, along with suggesting new applications for possible exploitation of SACs.

Abstract
Metal promotion in heterogeneous catalysis requires nanoscale-precision architectures to attain maximized and durable benefits. Herein, we unravel the complex interplay between nanostructure and product selectivity of nickel-promoted In2O3 in CO2 hydrogenation to methanol through in-depth characterization, theoretical simulations, and kinetic analyses. Up to 10 wt.% nickel, InNi3 patches are formed on the oxide surface, which cannot activate CO2 but boost methanol production supplying neutral hydrogen species. Since protons and hydrides generated on In2O3 drive methanol synthesis rather than the reverse water-gas shift but radicals foster both reactions, nickel-lean catalysts featuring nanometric alloy layers provide a favorable balance between charged and neutral hydrogen species. For nickel contents >10 wt.%, extended InNi3 structures favor CO production and metallic nickel additionally present produces some methane. This study marks a step ahead towards green methanol synthesis and uncovers chemistry aspects of nickel that shall spark inspiration for other catalytic applications.

Abstract
Pd nanoparticles (1 wt %; mean size ∼4 nm) were supported on ∼2 μm sized, but few nanometers thick, graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) and compared to 1 wt % Pd on activated carbon or γ-alumina. Catalyst morphology, specific surface area, and Pd particle size were characterized by SEM, BET, and TEM, respectively. H2-TPD indicated that GNPs intercalated hydrogen, which may provide additional H2 supply to the Pd nanoparticles during C2H4 hydrogenation. Whereas the two types of Pd/GNPs (NaOH vs calcinated) catalysts were less active than Pd/C and Pd/Al2O3 below 40 °C, at 55 °C they were about 3-4 times more active. As for example Pd/GNPs (NaOH) and Pd/Al2O3 exhibited not too different mean Pd particle size (3.7 vs 2.5 nm, respectively), the higher activity is attributed to the additional hydrogen supply likely by the metal/support interface, as suggested by the varying C2H4 and H2 orders on the different supports. Operando XANES measurements during C2H4 hydrogenation revealed the presence of Pd hydride. The Pd hydride was more stable for Pd/GNPs (NaOH) than for Pd/C, once more pointing to a better hydrogen supply by graphene nanoplatelets.

Abstract
Stability against reshaping of metallic fcc nanocrystals synthesized with tailored far-from-equilibrium shapes is key to maintaining optimal properties for applications such as catalysis. Yet Arrhenius analysis of experimental reshaping kinetics, and appropriate theory and simulation, is lacking. Thus, we use TEM to monitor the reshaping of Pd nanocubes of ∼25 nm side length between 410 °C (over ∼4.5 h) and 440 °C (over ∼0.25 h), extracting a high effective energy barrier of Eeff ≈ 4.6 eV. We also provide an analytic determination of the energy variation along the optimal pathway for reshaping that involves transfer of atoms across the nanocube surface from edges or corners to form new layers on side {100} facets. The effective barrier from this analysis is shown to increase strongly with the degree of truncation of edges and corners in the synthesized nanocube. Theory matches experiment for the appropriate degree of truncation. In addition, we perform simulations of a stochastic atomistic-level model incorporating a realistic description of diffusive hopping for undercoordinated surface atoms, thereby providing a visualization of the initial reshaping process.

Abstract
AbstractColloidal synthesis of metal nanocrystals (NC) offers control over size, crystal structure and shape of nanoparticles, making it a promising method to synthesize model catalysts to investigate structure-performance relationships. Here, we investigated the synthesis of disk-shaped Co-NC, their deposition on a support and performance in the Fischer–Tropsch (FT) synthesis under industrially relevant conditions. From the NC synthesis, either spheres only or a mixture of disk-shaped and spherical Co-NC was obtained. The disks had an average diameter of 15 nm, a thickness of 4 nm and consisted of hcp Co exposing (0001) on the base planes. The spheres were 11 nm on average and consisted of ε-Co. After mild oxidation, the CoO-NC were deposited on SiO2 with numerically 66% of the NC being disk-shaped. After reduction, the catalyst with spherical plus disk-shaped Co-NC had 50% lower intrinsic activity for FT synthesis (20 bar, 220 °C, H2/CO = 2 v/v) than the catalyst with spherical NC only, while C5+-selectivity was similar. Surprisingly, the Co-NC morphology was unchanged after catalysis. Using XPS it was established that nitrogen-containing ligands were largely removed and in situ XRD revealed that both catalysts consisted of 65% hcp Co and 21 or 32% fcc Co during FT. Furthermore, 3–5 nm polycrystalline domains were observed. Through exclusion of several phenomena, we tentatively conclude that the high fraction of (0001) facets in disk-shaped Co-NC decrease FT activity and, although very challenging to pursue, that metal nanoparticle shape effects can be studied at industrially relevant conditions.

Molecules 2020; 25:molecules25081764.

Abstract
Halloysite aluminosilicate nanotubes loaded with ruthenium particles were used as reactors for Fischer–Tropsch synthesis. To load ruthenium inside clay, selective modification of the external surface with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, urea, or acetone azine was performed. Reduction of materials in a flow of hydrogen at 400 °C resulted in catalysts loaded with 2 wt.% of 3.5 nm Ru particles, densely packed inside the tubes. Catalysts were characterized by N2-adsorption, temperature-programmed desorption of ammonia, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray fluorescence, and X-ray diffraction analysis. We concluded that the total acidity and specific morphology of reactors were the major factors influencing activity and selectivity toward CH4, C2–4, and C5+ hydrocarbons in the Fischer–Tropsch process. Use of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid for ruthenium binding gave a methanation catalyst with ca. 50% selectivity to methane and C2–4. Urea-modified halloysite resulted in the Ru-nanoreactors with high selectivity to valuable C5+ hydrocarbons containing few olefins and a high number of heavy fractions (α = 0.87). Modification with acetone azine gave the slightly higher CO conversion rate close to 19% and highest selectivity in C5+ products. Using a halloysite tube with a 10–20-nm lumen decreased the diffusion limitation and helped to produce high-molecular-weight hydrocarbons. The extremely small C2–C4 fraction obtained from the urea- and azine-modified sample was not reachable for non-templated Ru-nanoparticles. Dense packing of Ru nanoparticles increased the contact time of olefins and their reabsorption, producing higher amounts of C5+ hydrocarbons. Loading of Ru inside the nanoclay increased the particle stability and prevented their aggregation under reaction conditions.

Abstract
N-Heterocyclic Thiones (NHT) proved to be efficient ligands for the stabilization of small platinum nanoparticles (1.3-1.7 nm), synthesized by decomposition of [Pt(dba)2], under a H2 atmosphere, in the presence of variable sub-stoichiometric amounts of the NHT. Full characterization by means of TEM, HR-TEM, NMR, ICP, TGA and XPS have been carried out, providing information about the nature of the metal nanoparticles and the interaction of the NHT ligands to the metal surface. Importantly, DFT calculations indicate that some NHT ligands interact with the metal through the C[double bond, length as m-dash]C double bond of the imidazole fragment in addition to the sulfur atom, thus providing additional stabilization to the nanoparticles. According to XPS, TGA and ICP techniques, the surface coverage by the ligand increases by decreasing the size of the substituents on the nitrogen atom. The platinum nanoparticles have been used as catalyst in the hydroboration of alkynes. The most active system is that with a less covered surface area lacking an interaction of the ligand by means of the C[double bond, length as m-dash]C double bond. This catalyst hydroborates alkynes with excellent selectivities towards the monoborylated anti-Markovnikov product (vinyl-boronate) when one equiv. of borane is used. Very interestingly, aliphatic alkynes undergo a second hydroborylation process leading to the corresponding 1,1- and 1,2-diboroylated species with good selectivities towards the former.

Abstract
The effect of the morphology, which exposes different crystal planes, on the physicochemical properties and catalytic activity in diesel carbon soot oxidation was studied using CoOx-decorated CeO2 (CoCeO2) heterostructured catalysts, such as nanorods (NRs), nanocubes (NCs), and nanoparticles (NPs). The CoOx/CeO2 nanorods (CoCeO2-NR) showed superior carbon soot combustion activity at lower temperatures to CoCeO2-NCs and CoCeO2-NPs under both tight and loose contact modes with soot combustion temperatures (T50) of 321 and 494 °C, respectively. A comprehensive analysis by means of X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy, in situ X-ray absorption fine structure, temperature-programmed reduction, oxygen storage/release measurements, and density functional theory calculations revealed that the improved activity of CoCeO2-NRs is mainly ascribed to the high oxygen release rate and strong redox capability of the supported Co species, with complete reversibility. This originates from the high reactivity of oxygen atoms on (110) surfaces, compared to (100) and (111) surfaces over CeO2. Additionally, CoCeO2-NRs displayed durability and recyclability without any significant loss of catalytic activity or structural change. These insights will aid in the rational design of practical catalysts for the purification of diesel exhaust and other important transformations.

Abstract
Owing to the synergy between metals, trimetal oxalate micropolyhedrons have been synthesized by means of a room-temperature coprecipitation strategy. The effect of their nanoscale size on their electrochemical performance toward glucose oxidation was investigated. In particular, the Co0.5 Mn0.1 Ni0.4 C2 O4 ⋅n H2 O micropolyhedrons illustrated prominent electrocatalytic activity for the glucose oxidation reaction. Additionally, the Co0.5 Mn0.1 Ni0.4 C2 O4 ⋅n H2 O micropolyhedrons, when used as an electrode material, illustrated an excellent lower limit of detection (1.5 μm), a wide detection concentration range (0.5-5065.5 μm), and a high sensitivity (493.5 μA mm-1 cm-2 ). Further analysis indicated that the effectively improved conductivity may have been due to the small size of the materials, and it was easier to form a flat film when Nafion was coated onto the glassy carbon electrode.

Abstract
Carbon moieties on late transition metals are regarded as poisoning agents in heterogeneous catalysis. Recent studies show the promoting catalytic role of subsurface C atoms in Pd surfaces and their existence in Ni and Pt surfaces. Here energetic and kinetic evidence obtained by accurate simulations on surface and nanoparticle models shows that such subsurface C species are a general issue to consider even in coinage noble-metal systems. Subsurface C is the most stable situation in densely packed (111) surfaces of Cu and Ag, with sinking barriers low enough to be overcome at catalytic working temperatures. Low-coordinated sites at nanoparticle edges and corners further stabilize them, even in Au, with negligible subsurface sinking barriers. The malleability of low-coordinated sites is key in the subsurface C accommodation. The incorporation of C species decreases the electron density of the surrounding metal atoms, thus affecting their chemical and catalytic activity.

Abstract
Controlling of the size and/or shape of noble metal nanoparticles (NMNPs) is crucial to make use of their unique properties and to optimize their performance for a given application. Within the past decades, the development of wet-chemistry methods enables fine tailoring of the size and morphology of NMNPs. We herein devote this review to introduce the wet-chemistry-based methods for the size and shape-controlled synthesis of rhodium (Rh) NPs. We start with a summarization of the wet-chemistry-based approaches developed for producing Rh NPs and then focus on recent fascinating advances in their size- and shape-control in the aspects of kinetic and thermodynamic regimes depending on the synthetic conditions. Then, we use several typical examples to showcase the applications of Rh NPs with tunable sizes and shapes. Finally, we make some perspectives for the further research trends and development of Rh NPs. We hope through this reviewing effort, one can easily understand the technical bases for effectively designing and producing Rh NPs with desired properties.

Abstract
The diaryl ether moiety is not only prevalent in a significant number of natural products and synthetic pharmaceuticals but also widely found in many pesticides, polymers, and ligands. Ullmann-type cross-coupling reactions between phenols and aryl halides are regarded as one of the most important methods for the synthesis of this important and versatile structural motif. In recent years, the use of nano-sized metal catalysts in this coupling reaction has attracted a lot of attention because of these catalysts with their high surface-to-volume ratio, high surface energy, and reactive morphology allows for rapid C-O bond formation under mild and ligand-free conditions. In this review we will highlight the power of these catalysts in Ullmann-type C-O cross-coupling reactions.

Abstract
Alloy nanoparticles fulfill an important role in catalysis. As such, producing them in a simple and clean way is much desired. A promising alloy nanoparticle production method is cathodic corrosion, which generates particles by applying an AC voltage to an alloy electrode. However, this harsh AC potential program might affect the final elemental distribution of the nanoparticles. In this work, we address this issue by characterizing the time that is required to create 1 μmol of Rh, Pt12Rh88, Pt55Rh45 and Pt nanoparticles under various applied potentials. The corrosion time measurements are complemented by structural characterization through transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and X-ray absorption spectroscopy. The corrosion times indicate that platinum and rhodium corrode at different rates and that the cathodic corrosion rates of the alloys are dominated by platinum. In addition, the structure-sensitive techniques reveal that the elemental distributions of the created alloy nanoparticles indeed exhibit small degrees of elemental segregation. These results indicate that the atomic alloy structure is not always preserved during cathodic corrosion.
