A Soft Chemistry Route to Selective Nickel-Based Nanocatalysts with Faceted Morphologies [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
A one pot synthesis of alumina supported faceted nickel nanoparticles is carried out following a simple, inexpensive, and sustainable pathway. Tailoring the different chemical steps of catalyst preparation allow the faceted morphology to be maintained while reducing the organic leftover. Moreover, this work shows the key role of the halide ions on the nanoparticles shaping that occurs during the reduction step under H2. The predominant role of the \111\ facets on the performance of the resulting supported nanocatalysts is also demonstrated. Indeed, catalytic tests in selective hydrogenation of polyunsaturated hydrocarbons performed for both faceted nanocatalysts and reference Ni show a clear selectivity enhancement for the former. The positive impact of \111\ faceted Ni catalysts on hydrogenation selectivity is of particular interest to reduce the purification steps after the catalyzed reaction.
