Nanoparticles in Ionic Liquids Stabilization

Generally, it is most likely that metal NPs are stabilized by the aggregates of the non-functionalized imidazolium ILs rather than by the isolated ions. In addition, the interaction between ILs and the metal NPs have been evidenced by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), isotope labeling, and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) techniques. [Pg.12]

Therefore, metal NPs in ILs are probably stabilized by protective layers via the loosely bond anionic moieties of the IL, oxide layer, and/or NHC transient species. [Pg.13]

Metal Nanoparticles in Ionic Liquids Recyclable Multiphase Catalyst-Systems [Pg.13]

Transition metal NPs dispersed in ILs are recognized as suitable catalyst systems for many reaction types with both typical homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis (see Sections 1.3.1-1.3.5). The most investigated reactions are the hydrogenation of multiple bonds and arenes [1, 5, 12, 13, 43, 44, 54, 80, 89, 92], carbon-carbon cross- [Pg.13]
