Silver nanoparticles for hydrodehalogenation reduction : evidence of a synergistic effect between catalyst and support / A. Minguzzi, O.C.M. Lugaresi, G. Aricci, S. Rondinini, A. Vertova. - In: ELECTROCHEMISTRY COMMUNICATIONS. - ISSN 1388-2481. - 22:1(2012), pp. 25-28.
Abstract:
The electrochemical dehalogenation of organic halides, a class of highly toxic compounds, is attractive for the
mild reaction conditions and has been a central topic in organic electrochemistry for the last few decades. In
this context silver has been deeply studied and characterized for its electrocatalytic properties in the hydrodehalogenation
reaction, particularly when nanostructured particles are used. This paper is focused on the
important role of the support, a commercial carbon matrix, with the aim of improving the final composite
properties in terms of stability, durability and electrocatalytic activity. In particular, the carbon matrix has
been undergone to an oxidative pretreatment to increase the surface oxo-groups and both the electrochemical
behavior of the mere carbon and possible synergistic effects on composite materials are analyzed and
discussed.
