Investigation of size-dependent properties of sub-nanometer palladium clusters encapsulated within a polyamine dendrimer.
نویسندگان
چکیده
This study describes the first example of the investigation of electronic, geometric, and catalytic properties of Pd subnano metal clusters of Pd(4), Pd(8), and Pd(16) stabilized by poly(propylene imine) (PPI) dendrimers using XAFS and IR analyses. The relations among these properties are also discussed.

Selective synthesis of Rh5 carbonyl clusters within a polyamine dendrimer for chemoselective reduction of nitro aromatics.
The selective synthesis of the [Rh5(CO)15](-) cluster within the PPI dendrimer was successfully demonstrated. The dendrimer-encapsulated [Rh5(CO)15](-) was resistant to decomposition under the catalytic reaction conditions and exhibited extremely high selectivity for the chemoselective reduction of nitro groups of various nitro aromatics with other reducible groups using CO/H2O as a reductant.
متن کاملExtraction of monodisperse palladium nanoparticles from dendrimer templates.
We describe a strategy for extracting nearly size-monodisperse, 1.7-nm-diameter Pd nanoparticles from within dendrimer hosts. The approach involves two steps. First, an aqueous solution of dendrimer-encapsulated Pd nanoparticles is prepared, followed by the addition of a toluene solution containing an n-alkanethiol. When the two-phase system is stirred, n-alkanethiols presumably self-assemble o...
متن کاملBimetallic palladium-gold dendrimer-encapsulated catalysts.
The synthesis, characterization, and catalytic properties of 1-3 nm-diameter bimetallic PdAu dendrimer-encapsulated catalysts are reported. Both alloy and core/shell PdAu nanoparticles were prepared. The catalytic hydrogenation of allyl alcohol was significantly enhanced in the presence of the alloy and core/shell PdAu nanoparticles as compared to mixtures of single-metal nanoparticles.

In this paper, the structural, magnetic, and electronic properties of two- to nine-atom copper and silver clusters and their alloys with one palladium atom are investigated by using full-potential all-electron density functional computations. After calculating minimized energy of several structural isomers of every nanocluster, it is argued that the small size nanoclusters (up to size of 6), ...
متن کاملSynthesis, characterization, and surface immobilization of platinum and palladium nanoparticles encapsulated within amine-terminated poly(amidoamine) dendrimers.
Platinum and palladium dendrimer-encapsulated nanoparticles (DENs) were prepared within commercially available, fourth-generation, amine-terminated, poly(amidoamine) dendrimers (G4-NH2). The synthesis is carried out by selectively encapsulating metal complexes within the dendrimer and then reducing the resulting composite. Intradendrimer complexation requires control over the solution pH to pre...
