This dissertation presents the preparation and characterization of rhodium(0) nanoparticles supported on hydroxyapatite, and investigation of their catalytic activity in hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of hydrazine-borane and ammonia-borane. Rh+3 ions were impregnated on hydroxyapatite by ion-exchange; then rhodium(0) nanoparticles supported on hydroxyapatite were formed in-situ during the hydrolysis of hydrazine-borane at room temperature. The rhodium(0) nanoparticles supported on hydroxyapatite were isolated as black powders by centrifugation and characterized by ICP-OES, SEM, TEM, EDX, XRD, XPS, and N2 adsorption-desorption spectroscopy. Rhodium(0) nanoparticles supported on hydroxyapatite have a mean particle size of 2.7±0.7 nm. The catalytic activity of rhodium(0) nanoparticles supported on hydroxyapatite was tested separately in the hydrolysis of hydrazine-borane and ammonia-borane. The hydrolysis of hydrazine-borane was started by adding the precatalysts, Rh+3-exchanged hydroxyapatite into the aqueous solution of hydrazine-borane; whereas, the hydrolysis of ammonia-borane was initiated by adding the catalyst rhodium(0) nanoparticles supported on hydroxyapatite which have been isolated from the first run of hydrolysis of hydrazine-borane. Rhodium(0) nanoparticles supported on hydroxyapatite provide a turnover frequency value of 6700 h-1 in the hydrolysis of hydrazine-borane at room temperature. The reuse experiments reveal that these supported nanoparticles are isolable, bottlable, and redispersible in solution. Furthermore, they retain 62 % of their initial activity at the fifth run in the hydrolysis of hydrazine-borane with release of 3 equivalents hydrogen. Activity of rhodium(0) nanoparticles supported on hydroxyapatite is maintained after the redispersion of the sample and 3 equivalents hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of ammonia-borane confirms the activity of preformed catalyst. Rhodium(0) nanoparticles supported on hydroxyapatite provide a turnover frequency value of 3990 h-1 in the hydrolysis of ammonia-borane at room temperature.

Synthesis and characterization of tetracarbonylpyrazinetrimethylphosphitetungsten (0) complexes
Alper, Fatma; Özkar, Saim; Department of Chemistry (2004)
In this study, the effect of a donor ligand on the stabilization of a carbonyl pyrazine tungsten complex was studied. The pentacarbonylpyrazinetungsten(0) complex could be formed from the photolysis of hexacarbonyltungsten(0) in the presence of pyrazine and could be isolated as crystalline solid. However, the complex was found to be unstable in solution, being converted to a bimetallic complex, (CO)5W(pyz)W(CO)5 and free pyrazine molecule. Two complexes exist in solution at equilibrium. The equilibrium cons...
Osmium(0) nanoclusters stabilized by zeolite framework; highly active catalyst in the aerobic oxidation of alcohols under mild conditions
Zahmakiran, Mehmet; Akbayrak, Serdar; Kodaira, Tetsuya; Özkar, Saim (Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), 2010-08-01)
Osmium(0) nanoclusters stabilized by zeolite-Y framework were reproducibly prepared by a simple two step procedure involving the incorporation of osmium(III) canons into the zeolite matrix by ion-exchange, followed by their reduction within the cavities of zeolite with sodium borohydride in aqueous solution all at room temperature. The composition and morphology of osmium(0) nanoclusters stabilized by zeolite framework, as well as the integrity and crystallinity of the host material were investigated by usi...
Optical and Vibrational Properties of [Pt@Pb-12](2-), [Ni@Pb-12](2-), and [Ni@Pb-10](2-) Zintl Ion Clusters
Çetin, Asude; Esentürk, Okan; Nalbant Esentürk, Emren (Wiley, 2017-05-10)
The optical and vibrational properties of Pt- and Ni-centered Pb-Zintl-ion clusters have been investigated by UV/Vis and FTIR spectroscopy. Computational studies have been performed to better interpret the experimental data, due to a lack of any FTIR and UV/Vis spectroscopic studies on these clusters or similar ones in the literature. UV/Vis spectroscopic analyses show an asymmetric broad absorption band, with a maximum at 265 nm for both Pt- and Ni-centered Pb clusters. FTIR spectroscopic analysis demonstr...
One-pot synthesis of colloidally robust rhodium(0) nanoparticles and their catalytic activity in the dehydrogenation of ammonia-borane for chemical hydrogen storage
Ayvali, Tugce; Zahmakiran, Mehmet; Özkar, Saim (Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), 2011-01-01)
Rhodium(0) nanoparticles stabilized by tert-butylammonium octanoate were prepared reproducibly from the reduction of rhodium(II) octanoate with tert-butylamine-borane in toluene at room temperature and characterized by ICP-OES, TEM, HRTEM, STEM, EDX, XRD, XPS, FTIR, UV-vis, B-11, C-13 and H-1 NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. These new rhodium(0) nanoparticles show unprecedented catalytic activity, lifetime and reusability as a heterogeneous catalyst in room temperature dehydrogenation of ammonia-bor...
Ruthenium(0) nanoparticles supported on xonotlite nanowire: a long-lived catalyst for hydrolytic dehydrogenation of ammonia-borane
Akbayrak, Serdar; Özkar, Saim (Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), 2014-01-01)
Ruthenium(0) nanoparticles supported on xonotlite nanowire (Ru(0)@X-NW) were prepared by the ion exchange of Ru3+ ions with Ca2+ ions in the lattice of xonotlite nanowire followed by their reduction with sodium borohydride in aqueous solution at room temperature. Ru(0)@X-NW were characterized by a combination of advanced analytical techniques. The results show that (i) highly dispersed ruthenium(0) nanoparticles of 4.4 +/- 0.4 nm size were formed on the surface of xonotlite nanowire, (ii) Ru(0)@X-NW show hi...
