Book Description
This groundbreaking book uniquely focuses on the exploration of the green synthesis of metal nanoparticles and their characterization and applications. Metal nanoparticles are the basic elements of nanotechnology as they are the primary source used in the design of nanostructured devices and materials. Nanomaterials can be manufactured either incidentally, with physical or chemical methods, or naturally; and the high demand for them has led to their large-scale production by various toxic solvents or high energy techniques. However, due to the growing awareness of environmental and safety issues, the use of clean, nontoxic and environment-friendly ways to synthesize metal nanoparticles has emerged out of necessity. The use of biological resources, such as microbes, plant parts, vegetable wastes, agricultural wastes, gums, etc., has grown to become an alternative way of synthesizing metal nanoparticles. This biogenic synthesis is green, environmentally friendly, cost-effective, and nontoxic. The current multi-authored book includes recent information and builds a database of bioreducing agents for various metal nanoparticles using different precursor systems. Green Metal Nanoparticles also highlights different simple, cost-effective, environment-friendly and easily scalable strategies, and includes parameters for controlling the size and shape of the materials developed from the various greener methods.

The Synthesis, Characterization and Catalytic Reaction Studies of Monodisperse Platinum Nanoparticles in Mesoporous Oxide Materials

Book Description
A catalyst design program was implemented in which Pt nanoparticles, either of monodisperse size and/or shape were synthesized, characterized and studied in a number of hydrocarbon conversion reactions. The novel preparation of these materials enables exquisite control over their physical and chemical properties that could be controlled (and therefore rationally tuned) during synthesis. The ability to synthesize rather than prepare catalysts followed by thorough characterization enable accurate structure-function relationships to be elucidated. Pt nanoparticles (1.7--7.1 nm) are synthesized by solution phase reduction methods in which Pt precursors are reduced in protic solvents in the presence of a surface templating polymer, which serves to stabilize the metal nanoparticles in solution. Particle size can be controlled during synthesis by altering either the PVP: Pt salt ratio, reaction media and by seeded growth methods. After Pt nanoparticles are synthesized, their size and morphology are confirmed with transmission electron microscopy and x-ray diffraction. Low power sonication in either aqueous or organic solvent was utilized to disperse Pt nanoparticles within the mesoporous metal oxide matrix. This method of catalyst synthesis is named capillary inclusion (CI). An alternative approach to catalyst synthesis combines the hydrothermal synthesis of mesoporous silica with Pt nanoparticle synthesis in the same solution. Synthesis under neutral conditions led to a catalyst in which the nanoparticles were highly dispersed throughout the catalyst matrix. This method of catalyst synthesis called nanoparticle encapsulation (NE) ensured that Pt nanoparticles were located on the internal pore surface of the mesoporous silica. Catalysts were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), x-ray diffraction (XRD), small angle x-ray scattering (SAXS) and physical adsorption to determine metal particle size and mesoporous structure. The surface chemistry of the nanoparticle surface was studied by infrared spectroscopy, selective gas adsorption (chemisorption) and catalytic reactivity studies. During nanoparticle synthesis, PVP is added to the solution to stabilize the platinum nanoparticles against aggregation. This polymer remains bound to the nanoparticle surface after catalyst synthesis and must be removed before catalytic reactions. Calcination of the catalyst at high temperature (623--723 K) for long time periods (24--36 hours) followed by reduction was initially used to clean the Pt surface. (Abstract shortened by UMI.)
Metal-catalyzed Cross-coupling Reactions

Languages : de
Pages : 540
Book Description
Carbon-carbon bond forming reactions are arguably the most important processes in chemistry, as they represent key steps in the building of complex molecules from simple precursors. Among these reactions, metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions are extensively employed in a wide range of areas of preparative organic chemistry, ranging from the synthesis of complex natural products, to supramolecular chemistry, and materials science. In this work, a dozen internationally renowned experts and leaders in the field bring the reader up to date by documenting and critically analyzing current developments and uses of metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions. A particularly attractive and useful feature, that enhances the practical value of this monograph, is the inclusion of key synthetic protocols, in experimental format, chosen for broad utility and application. This practice-oriented book can offer the practitioner short cuts to ensure they remain up-to-date with the latest developments.
