      Optimization of transition metal nanoparticle- phosphonium IL composite catalytic systems for deep hydrogenation and hydrodeoxygenation reactions 

      Banerjee, Abhinandan; Scott, Robert WJ (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2015)
      A variety of metal nanoparticle (NP)/tetraalkylphosphonium ionic liquid (IL) composite systems were evaluated as potential catalysts for the deep hydrogenation of aromatic molecules. Particles were synthesized by reducing ...

      Isolation of Carboxylic Acid-Protected Au25 Clusters using a Borohydride Purification Strategy 

      Shivhare, Atal; Wang, Lisa; Scott, Robert WJ (American Chemical Society, 2015)
      We report the synthesis of 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid (11-MUA) and 16-mercaptohexadecanoic acid (16-MHA) protected Au25 clusters with moderate yields (∼15%) using a NaBH4 purification strategy. UV–vis spectroscopy, ...

      In situ X-ray Absorption Spectroscopic Study of Fe@FexOy/Pd and Fe@FexOy/Cu Nanoparticle Catalysts Prepared by Galvanic Exchange Reactions 

      Yao, Yali; Patzig, Christian; Hu, Yongfeng; Scott, Robert WJ (American Chemical Society, 2015)
      Fe@FexOy core–shell nanoparticles have been previously shown to be a versatile support for catalytic metals such as Pd and Cu. However, the resulting structure, metal speciation, and performance of such catalysts in catalytic ...

      Following the Thermal and Chemical Activation of Supported Au Clusters using X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy 

      Shivhare, Atal; Scott, Robert WJ (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016)
      Al2O3-supported Au25(SC8H9)18 clusters with various Au loadings were thermally and chemically treated in order to determine the most efficient method towards the removal of thiolate stabilizers while avoiding unwanted ...

      Watching Iron Nanoparticles Rust: An In Situ X-ray Absorption Spectroscopic Study 

      Yao, Yali; Hu, Yongfeng; Scott, Robert WJ (American Chemical Society, 2014)
      Iron nanoparticles and iron oxide nanoparticles are among the most commonly studied nanomaterials because of their applications in fields ranging from catalysis to ferrofluids. However, many synthetic methods give iron ...

      Water shifts PdO-catalyzed lean methane combustion to Pt-catalyzed rich combustion in Pd-Pt catalysts: In situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy 

      Nassiri, Hani; Lee, Kee Eun; Hu, Yongfeng; Hayes, Robert E; Scott, Robert WJ; Semagina, Natalia (Elsevier, 2017)
      The addition of platinum to palladium is known to provide bimetallic catalysts that are relatively active in lean methane combustion in the presence of water at temperatures below 773 K, which is of practical interest for ...

      Following the Thermal Activation of Au25(SR)18 Clusters for Catalysis by X-Ray Absorption Spectroscopy 

      Shivhare, Atal; Chevrier, Daniel; Purves, Randy W; Scott, Robert WJ (American Chemical Society, 2013)
      We show the thermal activation of phenylethanethiolate (L = SC8H9) and hexanethiolate (L = SC6H13) Au25L18 monolayer protected clusters (MPCs) on carbon black supports, followed by characterization with extended X-ray ...

      Synthesis of Sinter-Resistant Au@Silica Catalysts Derived from Au25 Clusters 

      Sudheeshkumar, V; Shivhare, Atal; Scott, Robert WJ (2017)
      Gold clusters exhibit remarkable catalytic activity for many reactions such as carbon monoxide oxidation, alcohol, alkene, and hydrocarbon oxidations, and reduction reactions at low temperatures. However, several previous ...
