Abstract

The use of metal nanoparticles (NPs) or nanoclusters (NCs) as versatile catalysts for green and sustainable organic synthesis has attracted tremendous interest in recent years owing to their unique properties, such as a large surface-tovolume ratio and tunable shapes.[1] The control of their size, shape, dispersity, and in particular the combination of metal NPs/NCs with a specific heterogeneous support is essential for enhanced activity and selectivity in a ...
