"Weakly ligated/labile ligand" nanoparticles, that is nanoparticles where only weakly coordinated ligands plus the desired catalytic reactants are present, are of fundamental interest. Described herein is a catalyst system for benzene hydrogenation to cyclohexane consisting of "weakly ligated/labile ligand" Ir(0) nanoparticles and aggregates plus dry-HCl formed formed in situ from commercially available [(1,5-COD)IrCl](2) plus 40 +/- 1 psig (similar to 2.7 atm) H(2) at 22 +/- 0.1 degrees C. Multiple control and other experiments reveal the following points: (i) that this catalyst system is quite active with a TOF (turnover frequency) of 25 h(-1) and TTO (total turnovers) of 5250; (ii) that the BE(4)(-) and PF(6)(-) iridium salt precursors, [(1,5-COD)Ir(CH(3)CN)(2)]BF(4) and [(1,5-COD)Ir(CH(3)CN)(2)]PF(6), yield inferior catalysts; (iii) that iridium black with or without added, preformed HCl cannot achieve the Tor, of 25 h(-1) of the in situ formed Ir(0)/dry-HCl catalyst. However and importantly, CS(2) poisoning experiments yield the same activity per active iridium atom for both the Ir(0)/dry-HCl and Ir black/no-HCl catalysts (12.5 h(-1) Ir(-1)), but reveal that the Ir(0)/dry-HCl system is 10-fold more dispersed compared to the Ir(0) black catalyst. The simple but important and key result is that "weakly ligated/labile ligand" Ir(0) nanoparticles and aggregates have been made in situ as demonstrated by the fact that they have identical, per exposed Ir(0) activity within experimental error to (40) black and that they have no possible ligands other than those desired for the catalysis (benzene and H(2)) plus the at best poor ligand HCl. As expected, the in situ catalyst is poorly stabilized, exhibiting only 60% of its initial activity in a second run of benzene hydrogenation and resulting in bulk metal precipitation. However, stabilization of the Ir(0) nanoparticles with a ca. 2-fold higher catalytic activity and somewhat longer lifetime for the complete hydrogenation of benzene was accomplished by supporting the Ir(0) nanoparticles onto zeolite-Y (TOE of 47 h(-1) and 8600 TTO under otherwise identical conditions). Also reported is the interesting result that Cl (present as Proton Sponge center dot H+Cl(-)) completely poisons benzene hydrogenation catalysis, but not the easier cyclohexene hydrogenation catalysis under otherwise the some conditions, results that suggest different active sites for these ostensibly related hydrogenation reaction. The results suggest that synthetic routes to "weakly ligated/labile ligand" nanoparticles exhibiting improved catalytic performance nee is an important goal worthy of additional effort.

Encapsulated Hydrogels by E-beam Lithography and Their Use in Enzyme Cascade Reactions
Mancini, Rock J.; Paluck, Samantha J.; Bat, Erhan; Maynard, Heather D. (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2016-04-26)
Electron beam (e-beam) lithography was employed to prepare one protein immobilized hydrogel encapsulated inside another by first fabricating protein-reactive hydrogels of orthogonal reactivity and subsequently conjugating the biomolecules. Exposure of thin films of eight arm star poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) functionalized with biotin (Biotin PEG), alkyne (Alkyne-PEG) or aminooxy (AO-PEG) end groups to e-beam radiation resulted in cross-linked hydrogels with the respective functionality. It was determined vi...
Industrial Ziegler-Type Hydrogenation Catalysts Made from Co(neodecanoate)(2) or Ni(2-ethylhexanoate)(2) and AlEt3: Evidence for Nanoclusters and Sub-Nanocluster or Larger Ziegler-Nanocluster Based Catalysis
Alley, William M.; Hamdemir, Isil K.; Wang, Qi; Frenkel, Anatoly I.; Li, Long; Yang, Judith C.; Menard, Laurent D.; Nuzzo, Ralph G.; Özkar, Saim; Yih, Kuang-Hway; Johnson, Kimberly A.; Finke, Richard G. (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2011-05-17)
Ziegler-type hydrogenation catalysts are important for industrial processes, namely, the large-scale selective hydrogenation of styrenic block copolymers. Ziegler-type hydrogenation catalysts are composed of a group 8-10 transition metal precatalyst plus an alkylaluminum cocatalyst (and they are not the same as Ziegler-Natta polymerization catalysts). However, for similar to 50 years two unsettled issues central to Ziegler-type hydrogenation catalysis are the nature of the metal species present after cataly...
Conducting polymers of decanedioic acid bis-(4-pyrrol-1-yl-phenyl) ester
Çırpan, Ali; Toppare, Levent Kamil (Elsevier BV, 2004-05-15)
A dipyrrolyl monomer was synthesized via the reaction between 4-pyrrol-1-yl phenol and decanedioyl dichloride. The electrochemical behavior of this monomer was studied. Polymerization of decanedioic acid bis-(4-pyrrol-1-yi-phenyl) ester (DAPE) was achieved by chemical and constant current electrolyses methods. Copolymerization of DAPE with thiophene was performed by constant potential electrolysis in acetonitrile-tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate (TBAFB), dichloromethane-TBAFB, solvent-electrolyte couple...
Liposomal Nanoreactors for the Synthesis of Monodisperse Palladium Nanoparticles Using Glycerol
Clergeaud, Gael; Genc, Rukan; Ortiz, Mayreli; O'Sullivan, Ciara K. (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2013-12-10)
The synthesis of highly stable ultrasmall monodisperse populations of palladium nanoparticles in the range of 1-3 nm in size was achieved via polyol reduction within 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphor-rac(1-glycerol) liposomal nanoreactors exploiting glycerol as both reducing and stabilizing agent. The liposome-based green method was compared with synthesis in solution, and the reducing agent concentration and the lipidic composition of the liposomal nanoreactors were demonstrated to have a strong effect on...
Dust Effects on Nucleation Kinetics and Nanoparticle Product Size Distributions: Illustrative Case Study of a Prototype Ir(0)(n) Transition-Metal Nanoparticle Formation System
Özkar, Saim (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2017-07-04)
The question is addressed if dust is kinetically important in the nucleation and growth of Ir(0) nanoparticles formed from [Bu4N](5)Na-3(1,5-COD)(IrP2W15Nb3O62)-P-I center dot (hereafter [(COD)Ir center dot POM](8-)), reduced by H-2 in propylene carbonate solvent. Following a concise review of the (often neglected) literature addressing dust in nucleation phenomena dating back to the late 1800s, the nucleation and growth kinetics of the [(COD)Ir center dot POK8- precatalyst system are examined for the effec...
