Abstract
![]()
In
this review, we discuss selected examples from recent literature
on the role of the support on directing the nanostructures of Au-based
monometallic and bimetallic nanoparticles. The role of support is
then discussed in relation to the catalytic properties of Au-based
monometallic and bimetallic nanoparticles using different gas phase
and liquid phase reactions. The reactions discussed include CO oxidation,
aerobic oxidation of monohydric and polyhydric alcohols, selective
hydrogenation of alkynes, hydrogenation of nitroaromatics, CO2 hydrogenation, C–C coupling, and methane oxidation.
Only studies where the role of support has been explicitly studied
in detail have been selected for discussion. However, the role of
support is also examined using examples of reactions involving unsupported
metal nanoparticles (i.e., colloidal nanoparticles). It is clear that
the support functionality can play a crucial role in tuning the catalytic
activity that is observed and that advanced theory and characterization
add greatly to our understanding of these fascinating catalysts.

Abstract
The applicability of platinum and vanadium catalysts for the production of adipic acid from cyclohexanediol is severely limited by the instability of the latter species in liquid phase reactions.

Abstract
Cyclic carbonates are valuable chemicals for the chemical industry and thus, their efficient synthesis is essential. Commonly, cyclic carbonates are synthesised in a two-step process involving the epoxidation of an alkene and a subsequent carboxylation to the cyclic carbonate. To couple both steps into a direct oxidative carboxylation reaction would be desired from an economical view point since additional work-up procedures can be avoided. Furthermore, the efficient sequestration of CO2, a major greenhouse gas, would also be highly desirable. In this work, the oxidative carboxylation of 1-decene is investigated using supported gold catalysts for the epoxidation step and tetrabutylammonium bromide in combination with zinc bromide for the cycloaddition of carbon dioxide in the second step. The compatibility of the catalysts for both steps is explored and a detailed study of catalyst deactivation using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy is reported. Promising selectivity of the 1,2-decylene carbonate is observed using a one-pot two-step approach.
