Overview

  • Focuses on the effect of a nanostructured environment on catalytic performance (activity, selectivity, catalyst stabilization, recycling, etc.)
  • Compares the nanoconfinement effects on all types of catalyses metal-based molecular catalysis, nanocatalysis, organocatalysis, enzymatic catalysis
  • Covers comprehensively various catalyst confinement strategies: polymers, supramolecular scaffolds, mesoporous solids, artificial enzymes, metal organic frameworks (MOFs), carbon nanotubes, etc.
  • Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras

About this book

This book highlights the recent advances and state of the art in the use of functionalized nanostructured environments on catalysis. Nanoconfinements considered include well-defined molecular cages, imprinted self-assembled supramolecules, polymers made by living or controlled polymerization, metallorganic frameworks, carbon nanotubes, mesoporous inorganic solids, and hybrids thereof. Advantages of nanoconfinement of catalysts discussed include higher activities, improved selectivities, catalyst stabilization, cooperativity effects, simplified protocols for cascade syntheses, better catalyst recovery, and recyclability. The multiple applications that these materials offer are revolutionizing industrial sectors such as energy, electronics, sensors, biomedicine, and separation technology.
