Abstract
Treatment of the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) especially aromatic compounds such as toluene at low temperature and in the highly humid condition is currently a great challenge. New dual functional adsorbent/catalysts have been developed in this study to minimize the mass-transfer limitation at low temperature. The ready-to-practically-use materials, which consisted nano-sized noble metal (Au, Pd, Au-Pd) supported on granular carbon (GC) have been prepared using a metal-sol method. The surface morphology, and structure of these granular materials were characterized to confirm the presence of nano-sized noble metal on the GC as well as the properties of the dual functional adsorbent/catalyst. The results of catalytic performance revealed that the presence of Pd played an important role in the formation of nano Au particles, which were the catalytic active-site for toluene oxidation. At 60% relative humidity and 150°C the dual functional adsorbent/catalyst, Au-Pd/GC, exhibited 97.2% toluene removal. Importantly, the kinetic analysis for the catalytic oxidation of nano-sized 0.5%Au-0.27%Pd/GC catalyst showed that the Langmuir-Hinshelwood mechanism provided a good fit towards the experimental data and allowed to determine the kinetic parameters of the reaction-rate law -rA=k⋅KA⋅CA1+KA⋅CA⋅KO2⋅CO21+KO2.CO2. The activation energy, adsorption enthalpy of toluene, and oxygen on the catalyst were reported.

Abstract
Supporting gold nanoparticles have shown to be extremely active for many industrially important reactions, including oxidations. Two representative examples are the oxidation of alcohols and alkanes, that are substrates of industrial interest, but whose oxidation is still challenging. This review deals with these reactions, giving an insight of the first studies performed by gold based catalysts in these reactions and the most recent developments in the field.

Abstract
The synthesis of ligand-free sub-nanometric metal clusters on a large scale suffers typically from very low yields (<5% yield) and needs very high dilutions. Here we show that Au clusters can be prepared with ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymers (EVOH), charcoal, and different metal oxides (CeO2, Al2O3, TiO2 and ZnO) in >15% yields, as unambiguously determined using a very simple and extremely sensitive analytical reaction test.

On the High Sensitivity of the Electronic States of 1 nm Gold Particles to Pretreatments and Modifiers. Molecules 2016; 21:432.

Abstract
In this paper, the effect of modifiers and pretreatments on the electronic states of 1 nm gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) supported on silica was systematically studied. AuNPs deposited on silica (particle size of 2–4 nm) modified with Ce, La and Fe oxides, were studied by FTIR of adsorbed CO after different redox treatments at 100, 300 and 500 °C. This study was conducted at room temperature to allow detecting the electronic states of gold, which is more likely involved in CO oxidation at the same temperature. AuNP size distribution was measured by HRTEM. It is shown that the electronic state of gold species (Aunδ−, Au0, Aunδ+, Au+) in 1 nm AuNPs is sensitive to the modifier as well as to the temperatures of redox pretreatments. Supports modified with the same additives but containing larger AuNPs (~3, 4, 5, and 7 nm) were also studied. They showed that Au0 remains stable irrespective of additives and redox pretreatments, indicating no significant effect of such treatments on the electronic properties of larger AuNPs. Samples with a predominant AuNP size of 2 nm are an intermediate case between these two groups of materials.

Abstract
Pd catalysis of C-C bond formations is briefly reviewed from the angle of nanoparticles (NPs) whether they are homogeneous or heterogeneous precatalysts and whether they are intentionally preformed or generated from a Pd derivative such as Pd(OAc)2. The most studied reaction is the Heck coupling of halogenoarenes with olefins that usually proceeds at high temperature (120-160 degrees C). Under such conditions, the PdII precursor is reduced to Pd0, forming PdNPs from which Pd atom leaching, subsequent to oxidative addition of the aryl halide onto the PdNP surface, is the source of very active molecular catalysts. Other C-C coupling reactions (Suzuki, Sonogashira, Stille, Negishi, Hiyama, Corriu-Kumada, Ullmann, and Tsuji-Trost) can also be catalyzed by species produced from preformed PdNPs. For catalysis of these reactions, leaching of active Pd atoms from the PdNPs may also provide a viable molecular mechanistic scheme. Thus, the term "PdNP catalysis of C-C coupling" used in this review refers to this function of PdNPs as precursors of catalytically active Pd species (i.e., the PdNPs are precatalysts of C-C coupling reactions).

Abstract
In this work, we show that if the mere procedure of impregnation of oxide supports with chloroauric acid, which is well-known to lead to large gold particles, is followed by a step of washing with ammonia, small gold particles (3-4 nm) can be obtained after a treatment of calcination at 300 degrees C on any type of oxide supports (alumina, titania, silica). Moreover, gold leaching is very limited during the washing step, and a large range of gold loadings (0.7-3.5 wt %) can be achieved. Elemental analysis, Raman spectroscopy, and temperature programmed desorption under argon show that this ammonia posttreatment results in the removal of chloride ligands from the coordination sphere of Au(III) precursor and their replacement by ammine ligands, leading to an ammino-hydroxo or an ammino-hydroxo-aquo gold complex and not to gold hydroxide. The Au/TiO(2) catalysts prepared with this modified procedure of impregnation are almost as active as those prepared by deposition-precipitation with urea in the CO oxidation reaction performed at room temperature.

Abstract
Interest in catalysis by metal nanoparticles (NPs) is increasing dramatically, as reflected by the large number of publications in the last five years. This field, "semi-heterogeneous catalysis", is at the frontier between homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis, and progress has been made in the efficiency and selectivity of reactions and recovery and recyclability of the catalytic materials. Usually NP catalysts are prepared from a metal salt, a reducing agent, and a stabilizer and are supported on an oxide, charcoal, or a zeolite. Besides the polymers and oxides that used to be employed as standard, innovative stabilizers, media, and supports have appeared, such as dendrimers, specific ligands, ionic liquids, surfactants, membranes, carbon nanotubes, and a variety of oxides. Ligand-free procedures have provided remarkable results with extremely low metal loading. The Review presents the recent developments and the use of NP catalysis in organic synthesis, for example, in hydrogenation and C--C coupling reactions, and the heterogeneous oxidation of CO on gold NPs.

Abstract
A combined experimental and theoretical investigation of the nature of the active form of gold in oxide-supported gold catalysts for the water gas shift reaction has been performed. In situ extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) and X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) experiments have shown that in the fresh catalysts the gold is in the form of highly dispersed gold ions. However, under water gas shift reaction conditions, even at temperatures as low as 100 degrees C, the evidence from EXAFS and XANES is only consistent with rapid, and essentially complete, reduction of the gold to form metallic clusters containing about 50 atoms. The presence of Au-Ce distances in the EXAFS spectra, and the fact that about 15% of the gold atoms can be reoxidized after exposure to air at 150 degrees C, is indicative of a close interaction between a fraction (ca. 15%) of the gold atoms and the oxide support. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations are entirely consistent with this model and suggest that an important aspect of the active and stable form of gold under water gas shift reaction conditions is the location of a partially oxidized gold (Audelta+) species at a cerium cation vacancy in the surface of the oxide support. It is found that even with a low loading gold catalysts (0.2%) the fraction of ionic gold under water gas shift conditions is below the limit of detection by XANES (<5%). It is concluded that under water gas shift reaction conditions the active form of gold comprises small metallic gold clusters in intimate contact with the oxide support.

Abstract
Au-Ag alloy nanoparticles supported on mesoporous aluminosilicate have been prepared by one-pot synthesis using hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) both as a stabilizing agent for nanoparticles and as a template for the formation of mesoporous structure. The formation of Au-Ag alloy nanoparticles was confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Although the Au-Ag alloy nanoparticles have a larger particle size than the monometallic gold particles, they exhibited exceptionally high activity in catalysis for low-temperature CO oxidation. Even at a low temperature of 250 K, the reaction rate can reach 8.7 x 10(-6) mol.g(cat.)(-1).s(-1) at an Au/Ag molar ratio of 3/1. While neither monometallic Au@MCM-41 nor Ag@MCM-41 shows activity at this temperature, the Au-Ag alloy system shows a strongly synergistic effect in high catalytic activity. In this alloy system, the size effect is no longer a critical factor, whereas Ag is believed to play a key role in the activation of oxygen.
