Application of metal nanoparticle catalysts to synthetic organic reactions : the role of surface chemistry

In this study several systems have been examined: in particular, asymmetric hydrogenation of C=C bonds and a prototypical C-C bond forming reaction. By synthesis and application of a range of chiral pyrrolidine-based sulfides, which robustly anchor to Pd nanoparticles, true heterogeneous enantiosele...
