Catalysis of silver nanoparticles, among the metal-based nanoparticles, has been of great
interest in organic synthesis and has expanded rapidly in the past ten years because of …

Cyanide-based baths are generally used industrially to produce silver and gold coatings via
electroplating. Baths containing ([Au (CN) 2]−) and ([Ag (CN) 2]−) are used for the deposition …

Catalysis is becoming a strategic area of science because it represents a new way to meet
the challenges of energy and sustain ability. In recent times, silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) …

This review paper covers the recent (2010–2017) synthetic modifications of the water
soluble cage-like aminophosphine ligand 1, 3, 5-triaza-7-phosphatricyclo [3.3. 1.1] decane …

Nitrile hydration provides access to amides that are indispensable to researchers in
chemical and pharmaceutical industries. Prohibiting the use of this venerable reaction …

We report the palladium (II)-catalyzed transfer hydration of cyanohydrins to α-hydroxyamides
by using carboxamides as water donors. This method enables selective hydration of various …

Nitrile represents a synthetically important class of compounds, relevant to the preparation of
fine organic chemicals, natural products, and biologically active molecules. The …

The air-stable hydride-platinum (II) complex [PtH {(PMe2O) 2H}(PMe2OH)], reported by
Parkins and co-workers in 1995, is the most versatile catalyst currently available for the …

Shape-selective synthesis of Ag nanocrystals in the aqueous system remains a challenge,
and insight into the mechanism of crystal growth is lacking. Here, we synthesized Ag …

A first example of silver (I) N-heterocyclic carbene (Ag (I)-NHC) catalyzed on-water synthesis
of primary amides by hydration of nitriles under mild reaction conditions is described. This …
