Аннотация:Here the results of investigation of Aun, AunMe (Me=Ni, Pd) cluster structures, catalytic and adsorption properties of isolate clusters and gold nanoparticles supported on metal oxide are presented. To solve this task integrated approach based on combination of the synthetic methods of compounds preparation with specified properties and modern quantum-chemical methods is used. As results the synthetic procedure of supported gold nanoparticles with high catalytic and adsorption activity is developed.2
Appearance of Au+ sites on particle’s surface is shown when any defects locate on surface or the additional metals (Ni or Pd) inject in the cluster’s structure. Such active sites lower effective activation energy in the catalytic reaction (allylbenzene isomerization, H2O2 formation, and CO oxidation).
