Abstract
We present the first example of Au-catalyzed reduction of nitriles into primary amines. In contrast to monohydrosilanes which are completely unreactive, diethylsilane (a dihydrosilane) is capable of reducing aryl or alkyl nitriles into primary amines under catalysis by Au nanoparticles supported on TiO2, via a smooth double hydrosilylation pathway. The produced labile N-disilylamines are readily deprotected by HCl in Et2O to form the hydrochloric salts of the corresponding amines in very good to excellent yields. The catalyst is recyclable and reusable at least in 5 consecutive runs.

Abstract
Even at low temperatures, metal nanoparticles (NPs) possess atomic dynamics that are key for their properties but challenging to elucidate. Recent experimental advances allow obtaining atomic-resolution snapshots of the NPs in realistic regimes, but data acquisition limitations hinder the experimental reconstruction of the atomic dynamics present within them. Molecular simulations have the advantage that these allow directly tracking the motion of atoms over time. However, these typically start from ideal/perfect NP structures and, suffering from sampling limits, provide results that are often dependent on the initial/putative structure and remain purely indicative. Here, by combining state-of-the-art experimental and computational approaches, how it is possible to tackle the limitations of both approaches and resolve the atomistic dynamics present in metal NPs in realistic conditions is demonstrated. Annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy enables the acquisition of ten high-resolution images of an Au NP at intervals of 0.6 s. These are used to reconstruct atomistic 3D models of the real NP used to run ten independent molecular dynamics simulations. Machine learning analyses of the simulation trajectories allow resolving the real-time atomic dynamics present within the NP. This provides a robust combined experimental/computational approach to characterize the structural dynamics of metal NPs in realistic conditions.

Abstract
The dehydrocoupling reaction between alcohols and hydrosilanes is considered to be one of the most atom-economical ways to produce Si-O coupling compounds because its byproduct is only hydrogen (H2), which make it extremely environmentally friendly. In past decades, various kinds of homogeneous catalysts for the dehydrocoupling of alcohols and hydrosilanes, such as transition metal complexes, alkaline earth metals, alkali metals, and noble metal complexes, have been reported for their good activity and selectivity. Nevertheless, the practical applications of these catalysts still remain unsatisfactory, which is mainly restricted by environmental impact and non-reusability. A facile and recyclable heterogeneous catalyst, ultra-small Ag nanoparticles supported on porous carbon (Ag/C) for the etherification of silanes, has been developed. It has high catalytic activity for the Si-O coupling reaction, and the apparent activation energy of the reaction is about 30 kJ/mol. The ultra-small Ag nanoparticles dispersed in the catalyst through the carrier C have an enrichment effect on all reactants, which makes the reactants reach the adsorption saturation state on the surface of Ag nanoparticles, thus accelerating the coupling reaction process and verifying that the kinetics of the reaction of the catalyst indicate a zero-grade reaction.

Abstract
Au nanoparticles catalyze the activation and conversion of small molecules with rates and kinetic barriers that depend on the dimensions of the nanoparticle, composition of the support, and presence of catalytically culpable water molecules that solvate these interfaces. Here, molecular interpretations of steady-state rate measurements, kinetic isotope effects, and structural characterizations reveal how the interface of Au nanoparticles, liquid water, and metal oxide supports mediate the kinetically relevant activation of H2 and sequential reduction of O2-derived intermediates during the formation of H2O2 and H2O. Rates of H2 consumption are 10-100 fold greater on Au nanoparticles supported on metal oxides (e.g., titania) compared to more inert and hydrophobic materials (carbon, boron nitride). Similarly, Au nanoparticles on reducible and Lewis acidic supports (e.g., lanthana) bind dioxygen intermediates more strongly and present lower barriers (<22 kJ mol-1) for O-O bond dissociation than inert interfaces formed with silica (>70 kJ mol-1). Selectivities for H2O2 formation increase significantly as the diameters of the Au nanoparticles increase because differences in nanoparticle size change the relative fractions of exposed sites that exist at Au-support interfaces. In contrast, site-normalized rates and barriers for H2 activation depend weakly on the size of Au nanoparticles and the associated differences in active site motifs. These findings suggest that H2O aids the activation of H2 at sites present across all surface Au atoms when nanoparticles are solvated by water. However, molecular O2 preferentially binds and dissociates at Au-support interfaces, leading to greater structure sensitivity for barriers of O-O dissociation across different support identities and sizes of Au nanoparticles. These insights differ from prior knowledge from studies of gas-phase reactions of H2 and O2 upon Au nanoparticle catalysts within dilute vapor pressures of water (10-4 to 0.1 kPa H2O), in which catalysis occurs at the perimeter of the Au-support interface. In contrast, contacting Au catalysts with liquid water (55.5 M H2O) expands catalysis to all surface Au atoms and enables appreciable H2O2 formation.

Abstract
Gold nanostars (AuNSs) are nanoparticles with intricate three-dimensional structures and shape-dependent optoelectronic properties. For example, AuNSs uniquely display three distinct surface curvatures, i.e. neutral, positive, and negative, which provide different environments to adsorbed ligands. Hence, these curvatures are used to introduce different surface chemistries in nanoparticles. This review summarizes and discusses the role of surface curvature in AuNS properties and its impact on biomedical and chemical applications, including surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy, contrast agent performance, and catalysis. We examine the main synthetic approaches to generate AuNSs, control their morphology, and discuss their benefits and drawbacks. We also describe the optical characteristics of AuNSs and discuss how these depend on nanoparticle morphology. Finally, we analyze how AuNS surface curvature endows them with properties distinctly different from those of other nanoparticles, such as strong electromagnetic fields at the tips and increased hydrophilic environments at the indentations, together making AuNSs uniquely useful for biosensing, imaging, and local chemical manipulation.

Abstract
Here, a simple, one step, lucrative and green synthesis of Cassia fistula leaf extract inspired antibacterial silver nanoparticles (CF-SNPs) was provided. Characterization of these CF-SNPs were achieved by using various spectroscopic techniques for instance Ultraviolet Visible (UV-Vis) Spectroscopy, Fourier-Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy, Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX). The effective antibacterial action of the CF-SNPs was checked against Escherichia coli (E. Coli) DH5-Alpha where MIC was 1.6 nM. Anticancer dynamism of the CF-SNPs was also tested in opposition to skin melanoma, A375 cell lines in which 4.4 nM was IC50. The binding proneness of HSA towards CF-SNPs was investigated by means of UV-Vis Spectroscopy, Fluorescence Spectroscopy, Time Resolved Fluorescence Spectroscopy, Circular Dichroism (CD) Spectroscopy, Dynamic Light Scattering, and Isothermal Titration Colorimetry (ITC). CD spectroscopy established minor secondary structural exchange of HSA in HSA-CF-SNPs complex. ITC and Time Resolved Fluorescence Spectroscopy verified the static type quenching mechanism involved in HSA-CF-SNPs complex. The binding constant was 3.45 × 108 M-1 at 298.15K from ITC study. The thermodynamic parameters showed that the interaction was occurred spontaneously by the hydrophilic forces and hydrogen bonding.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
N-alkylation of anilines by alcohols can be used as an efficient strategy to synthesise a wide range of secondary amines. In this respect, a hydrogen borrowing methodology has been explored using precious metal-based catalysts. However, the utilisation of cheap and readily available transition metal based catalysts is required for large-scale applications. In this work, we have reported metal-organic framework-derived CoNx@NC catalysts for the selective N-alkylation of anilines with different types of alcohols. The Co-N coordination in CoNx@NC was found to be extremely important to improve the conversion efficiency and yield of the product. As a result, CoNx@NC produced 99% yield of the desired amines, which is far better than that of Co@C (yield = 65%). In addition, CoNx@NC showed remarkable recyclability for six cycles with a minimum drop in the yield of the desired product.

Abstract
It is known that metal nanoparticles (NPs) may be dynamic and atoms may move within them even at fairly low temperatures. Characterizing such complex dynamics is key for understanding NPs' properties in realistic regimes, but detailed information on, e.g., the stability, survival, and interconversion rates of the atomic environments (AEs) populating them are non-trivial to attain. In this study, we decode the intricate atomic dynamics of metal NPs by using a machine learning approach analyzing high-dimensional data obtained from molecular dynamics simulations. Using different-shape gold NPs as a representative example, an AEs' dictionary allows us to label step-by-step the individual atoms in the NPs, identifying the native and non-native AEs and populating them along the MD simulations at various temperatures. By tracking the emergence, annihilation, lifetime, and dynamic interconversion of the AEs, our approach permits estimating a "statistical equivalent identity" for metal NPs, providing a comprehensive picture of the intrinsic atomic dynamics that shape their properties.

Abstract
We report an additive-free one-pot hydrothermal synthesis of Au, Ag, Pd, and alloy AuPd nanoparticles (NPs) anchored on commercial polyurethane (PU) foams. While unable to reduce the precursor metal salts at room temperature, PU is able to serve as a reducing agent under hydrothermal conditions. The resulting NP@PU sponge materials perform comparably to reported state-of-the-art reduction catalysts, and are additionally very well suited for use in semi-automated synthesis: the NP anchoring is strong enough and the support flexible enough to be used as a 'catalytic sponge' that can be manipulated with a robotic arm, i.e., be repeatedly dipped into and drawn out of solutions, wrung out, and re-soaked.

Abstract
In this paper, a D-shaped optical fiber plasmonic sensor using planar and grating structures of silver and gold metals is simulated using the finite element method under the wave optics module of COMSOL Multiphysics. Performance defining parameters are based on (i) the transmittance curve, viz., resonance wavelength (λ r), shift in resonance wavelength (Δ λ r), minimum transmittance (T m i n ), and bandwidth (BW), and (ii) on electric field distribution of a surface plasmon wave, viz., penetration depth (PD) and propagation length (PL) obtained for the considered sensor structures. It is found that gold gives wider BW than silver (e.g., at 1.39 refractive index of the sample: 480% for the planar case and 241% for the grating case), which deteriorates sensor performance by degrading detection accuracy. However, gold gives higher Δ λ r than silver (at 1.40-1.39=0.01 change in refractive index of the sample: 18.33% for the planar case and 16.39% for the grating case), which improves sensor performance and enhances sensitivity. A grating slightly increases the BW and Δ λ r for both gold and silver. Further, with respect to silver, the sensor that contains gold demonstrates higher PD (e.g., 22.32% at 1.39 refractive index of the sample for the planar case) and lower PL (e.g., 22.74% at 1.39 refractive index of sample for the planar case). A grating increases the PD (e.g., 10% for silver at 1.39 refractive index of the sample), whereas it decreases the PL (e.g., 8.73% for silver at 1.39 refractive index of the sample). Lower PL signifies the localization of the field, whereas higher PD enables the sensor to detect larger molecules. Therefore, the sensor with grating metals provides better sensitivity with reduced detection accuracy for the detection of comparatively larger molecules.

Abstract
New fluorescent polymeric sensors containing in situ photogenerated gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) and fluorescein-based copolymers are reported. They are tested as efficient fluorescent chemosensors for the sensitive detection of toxic divalent metal ions, such as Co2+, Cu2+, Cd2+, (UO2)2+, Pb2+, Zn2+and Hg2+. Their fluorescence quenching process depends on the concentration of metal cations and is comparatively analyzed for both the starting copolymers and the corresponding hybrid materials. Thus, the best results are recorded for uranyl (4 × 10-6 M) and copper ions (16 × 10-6 M), respectively. The detection limits of the investigated hybrid materials are lower by an order of magnitude compared to the starting copolymers, while the fluorescence quenching mechanism mainly occurred by a dynamic process, following a linear Stern-Volmer relationship. Thus, the report fundamentally confirms the influence of small amounts of Au NP (2 wt%) on the improved sensitivity of the final fluorescent sensors.

Abstract
Since C(sp3)-O bonds are a ubiquitous chemical motif in both natural and artificial organic molecules, the universal transformation of C(sp3)-O bonds will be a key technology for achieving carbon neutrality. We report herein that gold nanoparticles supported on amphoteric metal oxides, namely, ZrO2, efficiently generated alkyl radicals via homolysis of unactivated C(sp3)-O bonds, which consequently promoted C(sp3)-Si bond formation to give diverse organosilicon compounds. A wide array of esters and ethers, which are either commercially available or easily synthesized from alcohols participated in the heterogeneous gold-catalyzed silylation by disilanes to give diverse alkyl-, allyl-, benzyl-, and allenyl silanes in high yields. In addition, this novel reaction technology for C(sp3)-O bond transformation could be applied to the upcycling of polyesters, i.e., the degradation of polyesters and the synthesis of organosilanes were realized concurrently by the unique catalysis of supported gold nanoparticles. Mechanistic studies corroborated the notion that the generation of alkyl radicals is involved in C(sp3)-Si coupling and the cooperation of gold and an acid-base pair on ZrO2 is responsible for the homolysis of stable C(sp3)-O bonds. The high reusability and air tolerance of the heterogeneous gold catalysts as well as a simple, scalable, and green reaction system enabled the practical synthesis of diverse organosilicon compounds.

Abstract
We report the catalytic performance of networks of highly interconnected Au nanowires with diameters tailored between 80 and 170 nm. The networks were synthesized by electrodeposition in etched ion-track polymer templates, and the synthesis conditions were developed for optimal wire crystallinity and network homogeneity. The nanowire networks were self-supporting and could be easily handled as electrodes in electrochemical cells or other devices. The electrochemically active surface area of the networks increased systematically with increasing the wire diameter. They showed a very stable performance during 200 CV cycles of methanol oxidation reactions, with the peak current density reaching up to 200 times higher than that of a flat reference electrode, with only a 5% drop in the peak current density. The Au nanowire networks proved to be excellent model systems for investigation of the performance of porous catalysts and very promising nanosystems for application in direct alcohol fuel cell catalysts.

Abstract
The synthesis of 3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2-ones via the selective reduction of aromatic, multifunctional nitro precursors catalyzed by supported gold nanoparticles is reported. The reaction proceeds through the in situ formation of the corresponding amines under heterogeneous transfer hydrogenation of the initial nitro compounds catalyzed by the commercially available Au/TiO2-Et3SiH catalytic system, followed by an intramolecular C-N transamidation upon treatment with silica acting as a mild acid. Under the present conditions, the Au/TiO2-TMDS system was also found to catalyze efficiently the present selective reduction process. Both transfer hydrogenation processes showed very good functional-group tolerance and were successfully applied to access more structurally demanding products bearing other reducible moieties such as chloro, aldehyde or methyl ketone. An easily scalable (up to 1 mmol), low catalyst loading (0.6 mol%) synthetic protocol was realized, providing access to this important scaffold. Under these mild catalytic conditions, the desired products were isolated in good to high yields and with a TON of 130. A library analysis was also performed to demonstrate the usefulness of our synthetic strategy and the physicochemical profile of the derivatives.

Abstract
Supported Au nanoparticles on TiO2 catalyze the hydration/6-endo cyclization of skipped diynones to γ-pyrones in aqueous dioxane, via triple bond activation. The isomeric 3(2H)-furanones which could be formed through a competing and often prevailing 5-exo cyclization pathway using homogeneous ionic Au(I) catalysts were not seen. The reaction does not proceed via the initial 1,3-transposition of the skipped diynones to their corresponding conjugated 1,3-diynone isomers. If aqueous methylamine is added, N-methyl-4-pyridones are exclusively formed in 69-79% yields via an analogous hydroamination/Au-catalyzed 6-endo cyclization pathway.

Abstract
The detection of intermediate species and the correlation of their ultrafast dynamics with the morphology and electronic structure of a surface is crucial to fully understand and control heterogeneous photoinduced and photocatalytic reactions. In this work, the ultrafast photodissociation dynamics of CH3Br molecules adsorbed on variable-size Au clusters on MgO/Mo(100) is investigated by monitoring the CH3+ transient evolution using a pump-probe technique in conjunction with surface mass spectrometry. Furthermore, extreme-UV photoemission spectroscopy in combination with theoretical calculations is employed to study the electronic structure of the Au clusters on MgO/Mo(100). Changes in the ultrafast dynamics of the CH3+ fragment are correlated with the electronic structure of Au as it evolves from monomers to small nonmetallic clusters to larger nanoparticles with a metallic character. This work provides a new avenue to a detailed understanding of how surface-photoinduced chemical reactions are influenced by the composition and electronic structure of the surface.

Abstract
Atomically precise gold clusters are highly desirable due to their well-defined structure which allows the study of structure-property relationships. In addition, they have potential in technological applications such as nanoscale catalysis. The structural, chemical, electronic, and optical properties of ligated gold clusters are strongly defined by the metal-ligand interaction and type of ligands. This critical feature renders gold-phosphine clusters unique and distinct from other ligand-protected gold clusters. The use of multidentate phosphines enables preparation of varying core sizes and exotic structures beyond regular polyhedrons. Weak gold-phosphorous (Au-P) bonding is advantageous for ligand exchange and removal for specific applications, such as catalysis, without agglomeration. The aim of this review is to provide a unified view of gold-phosphine clusters and to present an in-depth discussion on recent advances and key developments for these clusters. This review features the unique chemistry, structural, electronic, and optical properties of gold-phosphine clusters. Advanced characterization techniques, including synchrotron-based spectroscopy, have unraveled substantial effects of Au-P interaction on the composition-, structure-, and size-dependent properties. State-of-the-art theoretical calculations that reveal insights into experimental findings are also discussed. Finally, a discussion of the application of gold-phosphine clusters in catalysis is presented.

Abstract
Spiky/hollow metal nanoparticles have applications across a broad range of fields. However, the current bottom-up methods for producing spiky/hollow metal nanoparticles rely heavily on the use of strongly adsorbing surfactant molecules, which is undesirable because these passivate the product particles' surfaces. Here we report a high-yield surfactant-free synthesis of spiky hollow Au-Ag nanostars (SHAANs). Each SHAAN is composed of >50 spikes attached to a hollow ca. 150 nm diameter cubic core, which makes SHAANs highly plasmonically and catalytically active. Moreover, the surfaces of SHAANs are chemically exposed, which gives them significantly enhanced functionality compared with their surfactant-capped counterparts, as demonstrated in surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) and catalysis. The chemical accessibility of the pristine SHAANs also allows the use of hydroxyethyl cellulose as a weakly bound stabilizing agent. This produces colloidal SHAANs that remain stable for >1 month while retaining the functionalities of the pristine particles and allows even single-particle SERS to be realized.

Abstract
The past decade has observed a significant surge in efforts to discover biological systems for the fabrication of metal nanoparticles. Among these methods, plant-mediated synthesis has garnered sizeable attention due to its rapid, cost-effective, environmentally benign single-step procedure. This study explores a step-wise, room-temperature protocol for the synthesis of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) using Carallia brachiata, a mangrove species from the west coast of Peninsular Malaysia. The effects of various reaction parameters, such as incubation time, metal ion concentration, amount of extract and pH, on the formation of stable colloids were monitored using UV-visible (UV-Vis) absorption spectrophotometry. Our findings revealed that the physicochemical properties of the AuNPs were significantly dependent on the pH. Changing the pH of the plant extract from acidic to basic appears to have resulted in a blue-shift in the main characteristic feature of the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) band, from 535 to 511 nm. The high-resolution-transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) images revealed the morphologies of the AuNPs synthesized at the inherent pH, varying from isodiametric spheres to exotic polygons and prisms, with sizes ranging from 10 to 120 nm. Contrarily, an optimum pH of 10 generated primarily spherical-shaped AuNPs with narrower size distribution (8–13 nm). The X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis verified the formation of AuNPs as the diffraction patterns matched well with the standard value of a face-centered cubic (FCC) Au lattice structure. The Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectra suggested that different functional groups are involved in the biosynthetic process, while the phytochemical test revealed a clear role of the phenolic compounds. The reduction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) was selected as the model reaction for evaluating the catalytic performance of the green-synthesized AuNPs. The catalytic activity of the small, isotropic AuNPs prepared using basic aqueous extract was more effective than the nanoanisotrops, with more than 90% of 4-NP conversion achieved in under an hour with just 3 mg of the nanocatalyst.

Abstract
This work reports the synthesis and catalytic application of mesoporous Au-loaded Mn3 O4 nanoparticle assemblies (MNAs) with different Au contents, i. e., 0.2, 0.5 and 1 wt %, towards the selective oxidation of anilines into the corresponding nitroarenes. Among common oxidants, as well as several supported gold nanoparticle platforms, Au/Mn3 O4 MNAs containing 0.5 wt % Au with an average particle size of 3-4 nm show the best catalytic performance in the presence of tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as a mild oxidant. In all cases, the corresponding nitroarenes were isolated in high to excellent yields (85-97 %) and selectivity (>98 %) from acetonitrile or greener solvents, such as ethyl acetate, after simple flash chromatography purification. The 0.5 % Au/Mn3 O4 catalyst can be isolated and reused four times without a significant loss of its activity and can be applied successfully to a lab-scale reaction of p-toluidine (1 mmol) leading to the p-nitrotulene in 83 % yield. The presence of AuNPs on the Mn3 O4 surface enhances the catalytic activity for the formation of the desired nitroarene. A reasonable mechanism was proposed including the plausible formation of two intermediates, the corresponding N-aryl hydroxylamine and the nitrosoarene.

Abstract
Solid supported or ligand capped gold nanomaterials (AuNMs) emerged as versatile and recyclable heterogeneous catalysts for a broad variety of conversions in the ongoing catalytic 'gold rush'. Existing at the border of homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis, AuNMs offer the potential to merge high catalytic activity with significant substrate selectivity. Owing to their strong binding towards the surface atoms of AuMNs, NHCs offer tunable activation of surface atoms while maintaining selectivity and stability of the NM even under challenging conditions. This work summarizes well-defined catalytically active NHC capped AuNMs including spherical nanoparticles and atom-precise nanoclusters as well as the important NHC design choices towards activity and (stereo-)selectivity enhancements.

Abstract
While CO oxidation catalyzed by gold nanoparticles has been practiced academically for several decades, there are still important discoveries to be made. One area of current interest is to pair Au with another alloying metal and observe the catalytic consequences of the presence of the other metal. In this work, TiO2-supported bimetallic Au nanoparticles are alloyed with Cu, Co, Ni, Pd, and Ru and used as catalysts for CO oxidation. Two synthetic methods for the alloys are presented: a strong electrostatic adsorption (SEA) method and a sterically demanding ligand synthesis (SDLS) method which uses triphenylphosphine (TPP) as the ligand. The catalytic performance of the materials synthesized with the SEA and SDLS methods is compared in CO oxidation. The results indicate that the materials tested present an enthalpy-entropy compensation effect. Interestingly, both the enthalpy of activation, ΔH ‡, and the entropy of activation, ΔS ‡, generally decrease with particle size. AuCo and AuRu materials exhibit a decrease in the overall activity as compared to Au and the other Au alloys when synthesized via SEA. Au face-centered-cubic alloys AuCu, AuNi, and AuPd prepared via SEA show an improvement in activity compared to monometallic Au in our reaction conditions. In situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy presents two distinct regions for Au bimetallics where AuCo and AuRu show peak positions in the region of 2070-2050 cm-1, indicating a weaker interaction for AuCo and AuRu with CO when compared to that of the other alloys. For the SDLS method samples, the hypothesis is that TPP would enhance the CO oxidation rate by enhancing the charge transfer to the metallic surface. The results indicate that SDLS samples have lower CO oxidation rates and if any charge transfer occurs, it is masked by the lateral interactions of the CO π bonds and the phenyl groups of TPP.

Abstract
In this contribution, we provide an overview of the main avenues that have emerged in gold coordination chemistry during the last years. The unique properties of gold have motivated research in gold chemistry, and especially regarding the properties and applications of gold compounds in catalysis, medicine, and materials chemistry. The advances in the synthesis and knowledge of gold coordination compounds have been possible with the design of novel ligands becoming relevant motifs that have allowed the preparation of elusive complexes in this area of research. Strong donor ligands with easily modulable electronic and steric properties, such as stable singlet carbenes or cyclometalated ligands, have been decisive in the stabilization of gold(0) species, gold fluoride complexes, gold hydrides, unprecedented π complexes, or cluster derivatives. These new ligands have been important not only from the fundamental structure and bonding studies but also for the synthesis of sophisticated catalysts to improve activity and selectivity of organic transformations. Moreover, they have enabled the facile oxidative addition from gold(I) to gold(III) and the design of a plethora of complexes with specific properties.

Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have emerged in recent decades as attractive and selective catalysts for sustainable organic synthesis. Nanostructured gold is indeed environmentally friendly and benign for human health; at the same time, it is active, under different morphologies, in a large variety of oxidation and reduction reactions of interest for the chemical industry. To stabilize the AuNPs and optimize the chemical environment of the catalytic sites, a wide library of natural and synthetic polymers has been proposed. This review describes the main routes for the preparation of AuNPs supported/embedded in synthetic organic polymers and compares the performances of these catalysts with those of the most popular AuNPs supported onto inorganic materials applied in hydrogenation and oxidation reactions. Some examples of cascade coupling reactions are also discussed where the polymer-supported AuNPs allow for the attainment of remarkable activity and selectivity.
