Bimetallic PdCu nanoparticles can be applied as catalyst in a wide range of chemical and electrochemical reactions. This review article overviews the preparation and synthetic applications of these bimetallic nanoparticles...
The 1-butyl-3-methyl-2-(diphenylphosphino)imidazalolium hexafluorophosphate is prepared and used as a water-soluble ligand in the Suzuki-Miyaura reaction. This ligand and palladium chloride generates a new active catalyst for the Suzuki coupling reaction between aryl iodides or bromides with arylboronic acids in neat water. This catalyst can be recycled and reused for the coupling reaction of 4-bromobenzonitrile with phenylboronic acid for at least six runs with low decreasing in catalytic activity.
Bimetallic Fe–Cu MOF was effectively synthesized through a one‐pot solvothermal process and successfully characterized by TEM, XPS, SEM, XRD, BET, EDX, elemental mapping, and FT‐IR analysis. This bimetallic MOF was employed as a catalyst in the reduction of nitroarenes at room temperature and as well as in the reduction of dyes, for example, methyl orange (MO) and methylene blue (MB). Results pointed to Fe–Cu MOF exhibiting outstanding catalytic performance for both room temperature reactions. The catalytic activity of Fe–Cu MOF in comparison with Fe‐MOF and Cu‐MOF in the nitroarenes reduction indicated a superior activity compared with single‐metal MOFs. Activity of Fe–Cu MOF catalyst did not change after its recycling and reusing for seven consecutive cycles in nitrobenzene reduction.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
