Solvent-Free Methods in Nanocatalysis

From Catalyst Design to Applications
Solvent-Free Methods in Nanocatalysis

Discover solvent-free approaches for the synthesis of nanocatalysts as well as various catalytic transformations in this unique one-stop resource

Solvent-free methods have attracted wide attention in organic synthesis and catalysis as a promising approach towards “greener” and more sustainable chemical transformations. In this regard, nanocatalysis has seen particular growth in recent years.

Solvent-Free Methods in Nanocatalysis gives an in-depth overview of nanocatalysts and their catalytic applications using solvent-free methods. After a brief introduction, it covers various synthetic techniques for the preparation of nanocatalysts and supports using solvent-free methods, e.g. ball-milling, microwave- and plasma-assisted methods. The book discusses in detail different catalyst classes, such as metal oxides, doped and functionalized nanocarbons, as well as nitride- and silica-based materials to help researchers to understand the efficiency and nature of these catalysts/supports based on their chemical structure. In the book readers will also find:

• A brief account of the history, challenges, and recent advances in the field
• Detailed discussion of advantages and disadvantages of solvent-free techniques for nanocatalyst preparation
• Treatment of important solvent- and catalyst-free organic transformations (i.e. oxidation, coupling and multicomponent reactions)
• A chapter on supported ionic liquids for solvent-free catalysis

Written by leading researchers in the field, Solvent-Free Methods in Nanocatalysis is a useful reference for researchers and students working in organic synthesis, catalysis, and nanomaterials science.
