IL-Supported or Mediated Metal Nanoparticles

Catalysis with IL-Supported or Mediated Metal Nanoparticles [Pg.22]

Nanocatalysis is a rapidly growing field which involves the use of nanostruc-tured materials such as NPs, nanofilms, and nano porous solids, as catalysts. In comparison with their bulk counterparts, the nano-structured catalytic materials possess high surface-to-volume ratio, high surface energy, and different electronic state, which result in unique catalytic activity in many reactions. Conventionally, soHd-supported nano-metal particles (NMPs) have been widely studied in various reactions. Besides the specific function of a soHd base to build the catalytically [Pg.22]

The main advantage of the preparation of magnetic nanoparticles (NMPs) in ILs is the multiple roles of ILs, for example, acting as the solvent, NP stabilizer, hgand, and immobilizing agent In general, soluble and stable NMPs can be prepared in ILs [Pg.23]
