Environmental profiles for the selected metals were compiled on the basis of available data
on their biological activities. Analysis of the profiles suggests that the concept of toxic heavy …

The carbon− carbon triple bond of alkynes is one of the basic functional groups, its reactions
belonging to the foundations of organic chemistry. In the past decades, acetylene chemistry …

We review here new developments in decreasing the catalyst loadings in palladium‐
catalyzed C–C bond‐formation reactions to mol ppm or mol ppb levels. This decreases the …

We report a catalyst made of Pd nanoparticles (NPs) supported on mesoporous N-doped
carbon, Pd@ CN0132, which was shown to be highly active in promoting biomass refining …

Remarkable developments have been accomplished in silica-supported palladium
nanoparticles (PdNPs)-mediated organic transformations for the generation of Suzuki (C–C) …

Palladium catalyzed coupling reactions have emerged as a versatile, convenient, selective
and mild protocol that can usually be adapted in any synthetic scheme for important target …

CO2 has a large effect on global warming by greenhouse gases, and development of an
effective technique for the reduction of CO2 is a crucial and urgent issue. From the chemical …

The application of advanced nanomaterials for catalysis has attracted much attention as it
offers many benefits due to their unique physicochemical properties. Nevertheless, the …

We report that thiolate-protected Au 25 (SR) 18 (R= CH 2 CH 2 Ph) nanoclusters supported
on oxides (such as CeO 2, TiO 2, MgO, and SiO 2) can catalyze Sonogashira cross-coupling …

This review presents a critical analysis of experimental methods used in distinguishing
between the homogeneous and heterogeneous catalytic mechanisms in the Mizoroki-Heck …
