One-Step Pyrolysis Preparation of 1.1.1 Oriented Gold Nanoplatelets Supported on Graphene and Six Orders of Magnitude Enhancement of the Resulting Catalytic Activity
Pyrolysis of chitosan films containing Au3+ renders 1.1.1 oriented Au nanoplatelets (20 nm lateral size, 3-4 nm height) on a few layers of N-doped graphene ((Lambda) over baru/fl-G), while the lateral sides were 0.0.1 oriented. Comparison of the catalytic activity of (Lambda) over baru/fl-G films wi...

| Sumario: | Pyrolysis of chitosan films containing Au3+ renders 1.1.1 oriented Au nanoplatelets (20 nm lateral size, 3-4 nm height) on a few layers of N-doped graphene ((Lambda) over baru/fl-G), while the lateral sides were 0.0.1 oriented. Comparison of the catalytic activity of (Lambda) over baru/fl-G films with powders of unoriented Au NPs supported on graphene showed that (Lambda) over baru/fl-G films exhibit six orders of magnitude enhancement for three gold-catalyzed reactions, namely, Ullmann-like homocoupling, C-N cross coupling, and the oxidative coupling of benzene to benzoic acid. This enhancement is the result of the defined morphology, facet orientation of Au nanocrystals, and strong gold-graphene interaction. |
