We have synthesized disc-like large silver nanomaterials that have nanostructured bumps on the surface using smaller nanoplate seeds. The size and shape of the bumpy nanostructures are rationally controlled by changing the concentrations of nanoplate seeds, silver ion, reductant, and citrate ion. Importantly, the synthetic mechanism of these bumpy nanostructures is remarkably similar to that of the conventional seed-mediated growth based on tiny seeds. We have further investigated the catalytic properties of the bumpy nanostructures for the reduction of 4-nitrophenol, which is associated with a concomitant color change from yellow to colorless.

A novel copper nanoparticles were synthesized from cupric sulfate using hydrazine as reducing reagents. A series of aromatic nitro compounds were reacted with sodium borohydride in the presence of the copper nanoparticles catalysts to afford the aromatic amino compounds in high yields. Additionally, the catalysts system can be recycled and maintain a high catalytic effect in the reduction of aromatic nitro compounds.

Metallacyclodimeric complexes of $[(Me_4en)Pd(L)]_2(ClO_4)_4$ ($Me_4en$ = N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine; L = dimethylbis(4-pyridyl)silane (dmps), methylvinylbis(4-pyridyl)silane (mvps)) have been synthesized, and their structures have been characterized by X-ray single crystallography. The skeletal structures consist of one 20-membered metallamacrocycle, two 5-membered metallacycles, and four pyridyl groups. The local geometry around the palladium(II) ion approximates to a typical square planar arrangement with four nitrogen donors. Delicate difference in catalytic effects on hydrogenation was investigated based on the structure of catalyst and substrates.

The interactions between four Keggin-type POMs (${SiW_{12}O_{40}}^{4-},\;{PW_{12}O_{40}}^{3-},\;{SiMo_{12}O_{40}}^{4-},\;and\;{PMo_{12}O_{40}}^{3-}$) and glassy carbon (GC) and highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) surfaces are investigated in a systematic way. Electrochemical results show that molibdate series POMs adsorb relatively stronger than tungstate POMs on GC and HOPG surfaces. Adsorption of POMs on HOPG electrode surfaces is relatively stronger than on GC surfaces. ${SiMo_{12}O_{40}}^{4-}$ species exhibits unique adsorption behaviors on HOPG surfaces. Surface-confined ${SiMo_{12}O_{40}}^{4-}$ species on HOPG surfaces exhibit unique adsorption behaviors and inhibit the electron transfer from the solution phase species. The catalytic activity of the surface-confined POMs for hydrogen peroxide electroreduction is also examined, where ${PW_{12}O_{40}}^{3-}$ species adsorbed on GC surfaces exhibits the highest catalytic efficiency among the investigated POM modified electrode systems.

A series of chiral prolinamide compounds with pyridine-2, 6-dicarboxylic acid moieties derived from L-proline have been designed and synthesized, their catalytic properties for direct asymmetric aldol reactions were also studied in this article. These catalysts gave the aldol product in high yield (87%) and high enantioselectivity, up to 85%, of the anti-structure at room temperature but gave disappointing results at a lower temperature or when additive was added. Conditions, including solvents, temperature and additives were screened for the reactions. Moreover, the influence of presence of water on yield and stereoselectivity was also discussed.

The exhaust gas from vehicle engines and industrial boilers contains considerable amount of harmful nitrogen monoxide(NO) which causes air pollusion and acid rain. To remove NO catalytic reduction processes using Cu ion exchanged ZSM-5 zeolite have been widely studied. In this study, an attempt was made to fabricate Cu/zeolite catalyst by using high energy ball mill. The catalytic performance of ball milled Cu/ZSM-5 zeolites is analyzed and optimum copper contents was determined. The processing variables were reaction temperature and copper contents. Complete removal of NO gas was obtained at the temperature of 553 K on 10wt.% CU/ZSM-5 mechanically alloyed composite powders. Mechanically alloyed CU/ZSM-5 catalyst showed homogeneous distribution of Cu in ZSM-5.

It was found that the adsorption of a cobalt(III) complex with a macrocyclic ligand, C-meso-5,7,7,12,14,14-hexamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane (hmc), was induced on a glassy carbon electrode by heavily oxidizing the electrode surface. Adsorption properties are discussed. The glassy carbon electrode with the adsorbed complex was employed to see the catalytic activities for the electro-reduction of O2. In the presence of oxygen, reduction of (hmc)Co3+ showed two cathodic waves in cyclic voltammetry. Compared to the edge plane graphite electrode at which two cathodic waves were also observed in a previous study, catalytic reduction of O2 occurred in the potential region of the first wave while it happened in the second wave region with the other electrode. A rotating disk electrode after the same treatment was employed to study the mechanism of the O2 reduction and two-electron reduction of O2 was observed. The difference from the previous results was explained by the different reactivity of the (hmc)CoOOH2+ intermediate, which is produced after the two electron reduction of (hmc)Co3+ in the presence of O2.

Catalytic chlorination of chlorobenzene was studied in vapor phase using various solid-acid catalysts such as silica-alumina, alumina, zeolite and a modified clay prepared by impregnating bentonite with ferric chloride. The conversions of both chlorine gas and chlorobenzene showed high over silica-alumina, alumina and modified clay catalysts. However relatively large amounts of polychlorinated benzene derivatives were also observed. The active species of catalytic activity in chlorination of chlorobenzene in vapor phase were proved to be as Lewis acid sites by in-situ IR experiments. The strength of Lewis acid sites which were effective for the vapor-phase chlorination seemed to be having Hammett acidity Ho >-3.0. The selectivity to dichlorobenzenes was proved to be high over the zeolite catalyst due to their shape-selective properties. p-Dichlorobenzene or dichlorobenzene selectivities were improved more or less by changing the reaction conditions.

At the low temperature of $950^{\circ}C$ the $\mu\textrm{m}$-sized whisker growth during the catalytic CVD of pyrolytic carbon from methane with $H_2$- and Ar-gas on quartz substrate with NiO powder was found in this work. In the preliminary study it was observed from pure methane pyrolysis without catalyst at the high temperature $1500~1700^{\circ}C$. If the growth whisker should be stopped at initial stage, about 20 min. of the methane pyrolysis, it would be nanosized whisker growth. The screw growth mechanism and unique mechanical properties of whisker for composites were also recognized. If the pyrolysis would be continued, we could found also spiral growth of whistlers with diameter of about 1, 5 mm. The large length of whisker was about 10 cm in 20 minute.

본 연구에서는, $200{\sim}350^{\circ}C$의 온도범위에서 $Pt/TiO_2$의 물리적 특성이 $NH_3$-selective catalytic oxidation (SCO) 반응에 미치는 영향을 확인하였다. CO-chemisorption, BET 분석은 $Pt/TiO_2$ 촉매의 물리적 특성을 확인하기 위하여 수행되었다. Pt 함량에 따른 $Pt/TiO_2$의 물리적 특성을 확인한 결과, Pt의 함량이 적을수록 분산도가 높았다. 또한 분산도가 높은 촉매는 $N_2$로의 전환율이 우수한 것을 확인하였다. 지지체의 비표면적은 분산도에 영향을 미치기 때문에, 물리적 특성이 다른 $TiO2$를 이용하여 $Pt/TiO_2$ 촉매를 제조하였다. 그 결과, 비표면적이 넓은 촉매가 $N_2$로의 전환율이 우수한 것을 확인하였다.
