Synergistic catalysis for light-driven proton reduction using a polyoxometalate-based Cu–Ni heterometallic–organic framework

Cu–Ni–POM employing bimetallic Cu–Ni and POM, which allows a concerted catalysis mechanism, hydrogen evolution reaction exhibited higher activity.

Novel hetero-bimetallic coordination polymer as a single source of highly dispersed Cu/Ni nanoparticles for efficient photocatalytic water splitting

Monodispersed Cu and Ni nanoparticles are deposited over TiO₂ using a hetero-bimetallic coordination polymer for efficient photocatalytic water splitting.

Ruthenium nanoparticles supported over mesoporous TiO2 as an efficient bifunctional nanocatalyst for esterification of biomass-derived levulinic acid and transfer-hydrogenation reactions

Ru NPs supported over mesoporous TiO₂ nanocatalyst and its catalytic activity was evaluated in the esterification of levulinic acid and selective transfer hydrogenation of nitroarenes.

Reshaping CuO on silica to generate a highly active Cu/SiO2 catalyst

Reduction–oxidation treatment [RO] is effective to reshape CuO within a confined area on SiO₂ support, forming highly dispersed nano CuO particles. The “shape” of CuO can be memorized during the activation process, resulting in the formation of a specific Cu metal and thus demonstrating enhanced catalytic activity.
