The quest for nanoscaling has extended beyond traditional metal oxides (1-4) and metal
(0),(5) as exemplified by the huge development of “quantum dots” chalcogenide …

This review comprehensively covers the coordination chemistry of elemental phosphorus
during the years 2011–2020. The main part is dedicated to the activation of white …

Wet chemistry in organic solvents has proven highly efficient for the preparation of several
types of metallic, metal-oxide, and semiconductor nanostructures. This Short Review …

In the last decade, the semi-hydrogenation of alkynes has experienced significant advances
in terms of fine control of alkene selectivity and prevention of the over-hydrogenation …

The efficiency of a heterogeneous catalyst depends on the nature and the number of
catalytically active sites, but these are often inhomogeneous. One possible solution is to …

For 25 years, Chemistry of Materials has been clearly providing a key forum to chemists,
physicists, and engineers interested in materials preparation and characterization, in the …

We report a new synthetic strategy for the fabrication of several supported nickel phosphides
(Ni12P5, Ni2P, and NiP2) with particle size ranging from 5 to 15 nm via a two-step …

Catalysis by colloidal suspensions of metal nanoparticles (NPs) is becoming more and more
attractive as it may combine mild reaction conditions with the use of organic ligands as …

Pd 3 P and PdP 2 phases of ca. 4 nm particle diameter were prepared on a TiO 2 support by
an impregnation route. Data from the hydrogenation of acetylene under both non …

Well-defined 25nm nickel phosphide nanoparticles act as a colloidal catalyst for the
chemoselective hydrogenation of terminal and internal alkynes. Cis-alkenes are obtained in …
