Summary: Synthesis, characterization, and catalytic properties of bimetallic cobalt-rhodium nanoparticles immobilized in an imidazolium-based supported ionic liquid phase are described. The Co:Rh ratio has a critical influence on catalytic activity and selectivity, showing clear synergistic effects. Particularly, a sharp switch in hydrogenation ability for 6-membered aromatic rings is observed within a narrow composition range.

Summary: This article introduces a new method for controlling the size of Pd-based intermetallic nanoparticles (i-NPs) by taking advantage of the strong chemical interaction between Al3+ sites and Pd-based i-NPs. The researchers synthesized six types of Pd-based i-NPs, with four of them maintaining a small average particle size. One of the prepared Pd3Pb-based i-NPs exhibited outstanding performance in catalyzing the semi-hydrogenation of phenylacetylene.

Summary: This study utilized a top-down strategy to encapsulate Rh species within one-dimensional KL channels and then reduce the catalysts at different temperatures, in order to tailor the locations and electronic states of Rh nanoparticles for selective phenol hydrogenation. Kinetic studies showed that increasing the reduction temperature improved the activity of Rh catalysts, while maintaining similar time profiles. The improved activity was attributed to the more electron-rich chemical state of Rh nanoparticles as they migrated from the central location to the edge or surface of the KL zeolite, facilitating electron acceptance from potassium.

Summary: The modulation of the microenvironment of active sites using porous materials enriched with organic functional groups can solve the trade-off problem between activity and selectivity in selective hydrogenation with supported metal catalysts. The enrichment, oriented adsorption and activation of substrates induced by non-covalent interactions determine the hydrogenation activity and selectivity.

Summary: The study focuses on the preparation and characterization of tungsten(VI) oxide supported rhodium(0) nanoparticles (Rh-0/WO3 NPs) used as catalysts for releasing H-2 from dimethylamine borane (DMAB). Rh-0/WO3 NPs exhibit high catalytic activity, with the sample containing 0.1% wt. Rh showing the highest catalytic activity (TOF = 2816 h(-1)). Additionally, the Rh-0/WO3 NPs show good reusability, retaining 55% of their initial catalytic activity after being reused in the dehydrogenation reaction.

Summary: In this study, a simple method for immobilizing phosphine complex on ultrasmall magnetic nanoparticles for catalytic reactions was described. A diphenylphosphino-ferrocenylethyl amine was conjugated with dopamine hydrochloride to form a complex, which was then anchored on the surface of magnetic nanoparticles to prepare the catalyst. The experimental results showed that the catalyst exhibited good catalytic performance and wide applicability in transfer hydrogenation and hydroformylation reactions.
