Evaluating the effects of carbon nanoreactor diameter and internal structure on the pathways of the catalytic hydrosilylation reaction (2014)
Journal Article
Solomonsz, W. A., Rance, G. A., & Khlobystov, A. N. (2014). Evaluating the effects of carbon nanoreactor diameter and internal structure on the pathways of the catalytic hydrosilylation reaction. Small, 10(9),

Three different types of carbon nanoreactors, double-walled nanotubes (DWNT), multi-walled nanotubes (MWNT) and graphitised carbon nanofibers (GNF) have been appraised for the first time as containers for the reactions of phenylacetylene hydrosilylat...

Palladium nanoparticles on carbon nanotubes as catalysts of cross-coupling reactions (2013)
Journal Article
Cornelio, B., Rance, G. A., Laronze-Cochard, M., Fontana, A., Sapi, J., & Khlobystov, A. N. (in press). Palladium nanoparticles on carbon nanotubes as catalysts of cross-coupling reactions. Journal of Materials Chemistry, 1, https://doi.org/10.1039/C3TA11530E

The macroscopic properties of composite nanotube-nanoparticle superstructures are determined by a complex interplay of structural parameters at the nanoscale. The catalytic performance of different carbon nanotube-palladium nanoparticle catalysts, wh... Read More about Palladium nanoparticles on carbon nanotubes as catalysts of cross-coupling reactions.

Copper-nanoparticle catalytic centres anchored at the 5 graphitic step-edges within hollow carbon nanoreactors exhibit superior activity and stability in cycloaddition reactions as compared to catalytic centres outside the nanoreactors. Nanoscale con... Read More about Click chemistry in carbon nanoreactors.
