Exceptionally Active Single-Site Nanocluster Multifunctional Catalysts for Cascade Reactions

摘要

During the course of two recent major conferences on catalysis, much was heard of the merits of nanoparticle metals and bimetallic nanoparticles supported on silica or alumina. Almost without exception the word nanoparticle was used, as in numerous prior communications and conferences, to describe metals, such as Pt, Pd, Ru, Au, and bimetals, such as Pt-Pd, Pt-Rh, that fall in the size range from about 3 nm to 10 nm.
