A critical review of different prominent nanotechnologies adapted to catalysis is provided,
with focus on how they contribute to the improvement of selectivity in heterogeneous …

The support plays an important role for supported metal catalysts by positioning itself as a
macromolecular ligand, which conditions the nature of the active site and contributes …

The heterogeneous Fenton-like reaction is an advanced oxidation process, which is widely
recognized for its efficient removal of recalcitrant organic contaminants. In recent years, the …

Mesoporous solid bases are extremely desirable in green catalytic processes, due to their
advantages of accelerated mass transport, negligible corrosion, and easy separation. Great …

Silica-supported metal complex catalysts have been developed and used for organic
transformations. The surface environment around the supported metal complex enhances …

Polyoxometalates (POMs) exhibit attractive properties and great potential to meet with
contemporary society demands regarding environment, materials, energy, health and …

Positive effects of the polymeric support on the performance of supported chiral catalysts, in
terms of activity, stability and selectivity–enantioselectivity, have been reported when the …

A series of Cp* Rh-based functional metallarectangles have been synthesized from
metallaligands. Enlargement of one linker leads to the isolation of two novel Borromean link …

Tandem reactions, which enable multistep reactions in one pot, offer enormous economical
advantages. For the first time, this manuscript reported that NH2-MIL-101 (Fe), an earth …

The catalytic conversion of glucose to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) is highly desirable,
but the 5-HMF yield obtained using heterogeneous catalysts is still low compared to …
