Journal ArticleDOI
Solvent-Free Oxidation of Primary Alcohols to Aldehydes Using Au-Pd/TiO2 Catalysts
Dan I. Enache,Jennifer K. Edwards,Philip Landon,Benjamin Solsona-Espriu,Albert Frederick Carley,Andrew A. Herzing,Masashi Watanabe,Christopher J. Kiely,David W. Knight,Graham J. Hutchings +9 more
TL;DR: It is shown that Au/Pd-TiO2 catalysts give very high turnover frequencies (up to 270,000 turnovers per hour) for the oxidation of alcohols, including primary alkyl alcohols and the addition of Au to Pd nanocrystals improved the overall selectivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of Active Gold Nanoclusters on Iron Oxide Supports for CO Oxidation
Andrew A. Herzing,Christopher J. Kiely,Albert Frederick Carley,Philip Landon,Graham J. Hutchings +4 more
TL;DR: High catalytic activity for carbon monoxide oxidation is correlated with the presence of bilayer clusters that are ∼0.5 nanometer in diameter and contain only ∼10 gold atoms, consistent with that demonstrated previously with the use of model catalyst systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tunable gold catalysts for selective hydrocarbon oxidation under mild conditions
Mathew D Hughes,Yi-Jun Xu,Patrick Jenkins,Paul McMorn,Philip Landon,Dan I. Enache,Albert Frederick Carley,Gary Anthony Attard,Graham J. Hutchings,Frank King,E. Hugh Stitt,Peter Johnston,Ken Griffin,Christopher J. Kiely +13 more
TL;DR: It is shown that nanocrystalline gold catalysts can provide tunable active catalysts for the oxidation of alkenes using air, with exceptionally high selectivity to partial oxidation products and significant conversions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Switching Off Hydrogen Peroxide Hydrogenation in the Direct Synthesis Process
Jennifer K. Edwards,Benjamín Solsona,Edwin Ntainjua N,Albert Frederick Carley,Andrew A. Herzing,Andrew A. Herzing,Christopher J. Kiely,Graham J. Hutchings +7 more
TL;DR: It is shown that acid pretreatment of a carbon support for gold-palladium alloy catalysts switches off the decomposition of H2O2, and the acid-pretreated catalysts give high yields of H 2O2 with hydrogen selectivities greater than 95%.
Journal ArticleDOI
Facile removal of stabilizer-ligands from supported gold nanoparticles
Jose Antonio Lopez-Sanchez,Nikolaos Dimitratos,Ceri Hammond,Gemma Louise Brett,Lokesh Kesavan,Saul White,Peter J. Miedziak,Ramchandra Tiruvalam,Robert Leyshon Jenkins,Albert Frederick Carley,David W. Knight,Christopher J. Kiely,Graham J. Hutchings +12 more
TL;DR: A procedure to effectively remove the ligands without affecting particle morphology is reported, which enhances the surface exposure of the nanoparticles and their catalytic activity over a range of reactions.
