Hydrogen spillover over macroscopic distances was demonstrated and exploited in the design of two novel catalytic reactors for 1-butene isomerization. A dual-bed reactor containing separate zones of noble metal and bimetallic catalysts yielded activities up to 2.7 times greater than that of the noble metal alone. The noble metal catalyst contained palladium supported on graphitic carbon. The bi...

We have prepared some diastereomers of [CuL2][M2O7] (L is 1,2-diaminocyclohexane and its derivatives; M = Cr and W) bimetallic coordination polymers and confirmed their structural similarity and inner electronic states by means of XRD and XAS, respectively. For the first time, we have successfully observed distant vicinal effect of which the chiral source is only chiral organic ligands of [CuL2...

Bimetallic AgAu Janus nanoparticles were prepared by galvanic exchange reactions of 1-hexanethiolate-passivated silver (AgC6) nanoparticles with gold(I)-mercaptopropanediol complex. The AgC6 nanoparticles were deposited onto a solid substrate surface by the Langmuir-Blodgett method such that the galvanic exchange reactions were limited to the top face of the nanoparticles that was in direct con...

Morphologies à la carte: a kinetic control strategy has been utilized to fabricate bimetallic nanoparticles. Using cubic Pd nanocrystals as seeds and a syringe pump that enables precise control over precursor injection rate, it is possible to synthesize Pd-Ag bimetallic nanoparticles with tailored shapes and tunable localized surface plasmon resonances.

The stabilization effect of Au towards Pd changed the reactivity of Pd in Au/Pd bimetallic nanoclusters, altering the reaction mechanism from homogeneous to heterogeneous in dechlorination reaction of aryl chlorides. This phenomenon was illustrated by the observed enhancement of the rate of reaction by in situ generated Au-rich bimetallic Au/Pd nanoclusters.

The heterotetra- and bimetallic uranium(iv)-rhodium(i) complexes [UIVI2(μ-OArP-1κ1O,2κ1P)2RhI(μ-I)]2 (2) (ArPO- = 2-(diphenylphosphino)-6-tert-butyl-4-methylphenoxide) and UIVI(μ-I)(μ-OArP-1κ1O,2κ1P)3RhI (3) were prepared by treatment of UIVI(OArP-κ2O,P)3 (1) with rhodium(i) iodide olefin complexes. The reaction of 1 with the monodentate cyclooctene (coe) rhodium(i) precursor [(coe)2RhII]2 give...

This article gives you proof that bimetallic transition metal clusters with the difference in electronegativity are better catalysts than monoatomic one. To prove this fact, a study of ethylene adsorption on bimetallic clusters vanadium-nickel VnNim (2≤n+m≤6) has been demonstrated. Our result shows that hardness has a quite good linear correlation with the non-Lewis of VnNi (n=1-5) cluster (R2=...

Chromium-vanadium (Cr-V) bimetallic catalysts are prepared by the introduction of vanadium into the Phillips catalyst which is one of the most significant industrial ethylene polymerization catalysts for tuning the Phillips catalyst performances and improving polyethylene properties. In the present work, titanium species were introduced into the fluorine-modified chromium-vanadium bimetallic ca...
