Palladium Nanoparticles Entrapped In Melamine-Formaldehyde Resin Microparticles For Mizoroki--Heck Reactions, Shaofeng Zhong
Palladium Nanoparticles Entrapped In Melamine-Formaldehyde Resin Microparticles For Mizoroki--Heck Reactions, Shaofeng Zhong
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Melamine-formaldehyde resin (MFR) microparticles with average diameters of 1.06 $\mu $m were synthesized with PEG-20000 as the particle-forming agent. Palladium nanoparticles were entrapped in and adsorbed on the MFR microparticles, consecutively. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to characterize the morphologies of MFR microparticles. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transition electron microscopy (TEM) showed that the palladium nanoparticles entrapped in the MFR microparticles dispersed much more homogeneously than those adsorbed on the MFR microparticles. Mizoroki--Heck reaction catalysis results demonstrated that the entrapped palladium catalyst had similar catalytic activity with the adsorbed palladium catalyst. Moreover, this novel entrapped palladium catalyst could be …

Hydrolysis Of Ammonia Borane And Hydrazine Borane By Poly($N$-Vinyl-2-Pyrrolidone)-Stabilized Copd Nanoparticles For Chemical Hydrogen Storage, Murat Rakap, Bayram Abay, Ni̇hat Tunç
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
For the first time the synthesis of poly($N$-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone)-stabilized cobalt-palladium nanoparticles by an easy method, their characterization, and their use as active catalysts for hydrogen release from hydrolysis of ammonia borane and hydrazine borane is reported here. The catalyst is prepared by simultaneous reduction of suitable cobalt and palladium ions by sodium borohydride in the presence of poly($N$-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) as a stabilizer. They are characterized by UV-Vis spectroscopy, TEM analysis, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. They provide average turnover frequencies of 30 min$^{-1}$ and 45 min$^{-1}$ in the hydrolysis of ammonia borane and hydrazine borane. They also provide activation energies of …
