Hollow shell–corona microspheres with a mesoporous shell as potential microreactors for Au-catalyzed aerobic oxidation of alcohols

Abstract: Au-functionalized hollow shell-corona microspheres with a mesoporous shell are proposed as a microreactor for aerobic alcohol oxidation. These microreactors are constructed by template polymerization followed by hydrolysis of the shell-forming polyvinyltriethoxylsilane segment, and contain a hydrophilic corona to keep the microreactors suspended in the aqueous phase and a mesoporous chelate shell to immobilize Au nanoparticles and to increase the permeability of the microreactors. These microreactors have the … Show more

“…Microsphere nanoreactors have roused growing interest among chemists since they provide a confined environment within which chemical conversion can take place efficiently and/or selectively 81–83. Generally, microsphere nanoreactors should have three characteristics:84 (1) a suitable scaffold to immobilize the metal nanoparticles; (2) highly dispersable in aqueous media due to the hydrophilic segment; (3) encapsulating and concentrating guest organic molecules of reactants within the microcavity in aqueous solution.…”

“…The simultaneous use of polymers and nanoparticles were considered in several industrial applications like papermaking, ceramic processing, paints, and coating, 1‐4 removal of azo dyes, 5 turbidity removal performances, 6 elimination of odorous gases, 3 enhancing the dispersion stability, 7,8 chemical reactions, 9‐12 and water purification 13 . Polyelectrolyte chains can easily collect a great number of reactants stably 1,12 .…”

“…Microspheres are droplets with volumes in the order of 0.5 nL that are commonly used as microreactors to induce small-scale reactions [5][6][7][8][9]; they are also efficient microcarriers of cells and implantable drug carriers [2,[10][11] for tissue engineering applications. These microspheres are commonly made by microfluidic devices via the shear force between two or more immiscible liquids at a T-junction [3] or cross-junction [4,[12][13] to create discrete spheres.…”
