Near‐Monodisperse Tetrahedral Rhodium Nanoparticles on Charcoal: The Shape‐Dependent Catalytic Hydrogenation of Arenes

Kang Hyun Park,
Kwonho Jang,
Hae Jin Kim
et al.

Abstract: The shape of things to come? Monodisperse (4.9±0.4)‐nm tetrahedral rhodium nanoparticles on charcoal (▴/C) are compared to (4.8±0.4)‐nm spherical rhodium nanoparticles on charcoal (•/C) and commercial Rh/C as a catalyst for the hydrogenation of anthracene (see picture). The former is 5.8‐ and 109‐times more active than the latter two, respectively. It also shows a higher selectivity and excellent activity in the hydrogenation of several other arenes.

“…The field is also of interest in relation to hydrogen storage. 5 The hydrogenation of benzene and arenes is generally accomplished using heterogeneous catalysts almost exclusively, 4a,6 molecular catalysts immobilized on heterogeneous surfaces, 7 supported nanoparticle, 8 or soluble nanoparticle 9 systems, sometimes inadvertently derived from molecular precursors, 10 represents an important industrial catalytic transformation, particularly for the production of cleaner-burning, low-aromatic diesel fuels. 4a In this paper we report the catalytic activity of iridium complexes immobilized on functionalized Zr-MOF in the hydrogenation of arenes.…”
