Pd/ZrO2and PdO/ZrO2composites, containing Pd or PdO nanoparticles, were prepared using an original one-step methodology. These nanocomposites catalyze the hydrogenation of acetophenone (AP) at 1 bar and 10 bar of H2in an aqueous solution. Compared to unsupported Pd or PdO nanoparticles, a remarkable increase in their activity was achieved as a result of interaction with zirconia. An unsupported PdO hydrogenated AP mainly to ethylbenzene (EB), while excellent regioselectivity towards 1-phenylethanol (PE) was obtained with PdO/ZrO2and it was preserved during recycling. Similarly, regioselectivity to PE was higher with Pd/ZrO2compared to unsupported Pd NPs. PdO and zirconia resulted in high selectivity to alcohols in the hydrogenation of substituted acetophenones.

We present an efficient method toward rational design and fabrication of multicomponent photocatalysts using carbon dots (CDs) for solar-driven chemical reactions with super selectivity and activity. CDs act not only as a reductant to enable metallic Cu formation but also as a hole trapping agent to hinder side reactions. By simple pyrolysis of the mixture of the Cu source, CDs and NaH2PO2, the Cu3P-CDs-Cu nanocomposite is produced and shows a good sunlight harvesting property. Under one sun irradiation, Cu3P-CDs-Cu can catalyze ammonia borane (AB) for selective hydrogenation of 4-nitrostyrene (4-NS) to 4-aminostyrene (4-AS) in an aqueous solvent at room temperature, achieving 100% selectivity and beyond 99% conversion rate within a few short minutes of reaction time. The superior performance of Cu3P-CDs-Cu is attributed to the formation of the all-solid-state Z-scheme photocatalytic system, eliminating the high-energy holes - active species attacking CC groups in 4-NS - from Cu3P. Meanwhile, metallic Cu promotes the migration and transport of excited electrons from the interior to the surface and interface, accelerating the activation of AB for selective reduction of 4-NS to 4-AS.

In this work, two types of polyporous and coral-like materials (CN) with high specific surface area are prepared using sodium glutamate as a carrier. At the same time, a CN-supported phosphorus-nitrogen-doped palladium nanomaterial CN-P-Pd is synthesized and applied to the preparation of styrene by selective hydrogenation of phenylacetylene under mild conditions. As shown in the TEM images, Pd nanoparticles with a particle size of about 4.4 nm are uniformly dispersed on the surface of the carrier. The results of N2 adsorption–desorption reveal that the surface area of the prepared catalyst (CN-P-Pd) is 1307 m2g?1. In addition, the experimental exploration shows the intervention of P in carbon-nitrogen materials can contribute to improve the selectivity of the reaction, which can be attributed to the fact that P element can change the electron density of Pd. Meanwhile, it is found that the solvent not only affects the activity of catalyst, but also the selectivity of the reaction. Kinetic study shows the activation energy of the reaction is 4.5 kJ/mol. With the increase of the reaction temperature, the dissolution rate of hydrogen in the solvent gradually slows down, which inhibits the progress of the reduction reaction. Mechanistic studies demonstrate that the carbon-nitrogen materials have strong adsorption capacity for substrates, and also provide more adsorption sites for phenylacetylene. Additionally, the optimal catalyst (CN-P-Pd) also has high reaction activity to other alkynes and the conversion can reach at 95%. Moreover, the optimal catalyst can be reused several times without significant reduction in reaction activity.
