Nanodiamonds for catalytic reactions [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
Applying carbon material as a catalyst for different chemical reactions is generally based on two parameters. First, the carbon material itself can act as a catalyst in a chemical transformation and its surface with unique structures and tunable functional groups plays a role in this regard. Secondly, it can act as a support for the active metals and influence their catalytic behavior. The catalytic applications of nanodiamond are also developed based upon these two important presumptions. In order to design a catalytic chemical transformation, it is highly important to understand the catalyst surface, nature of the chemical reaction under investigation, and the possible active center(s) in the catalyst. Nanodiamonds not only have the tendency to behave as a catalyst in various chemical transformations, but also have the potential to act as catalyst support. The objective of the current work is to provide the application of nanodiamond in the field of catalysis as a catalyst or catalyst support for variety of chemical reactions. Other applications such as development of sensors, biomedical imaging and their role as drug delivery agents can be found in Chapters 16 and 17. The unique surface of nanodiamonds with tunable functional groups makes them suitable for different chemical transformations. How this surface can influence a chemical reaction/metal loading and what type of chemical reactions can be performed with nanodiamond are two important questions addressed in this chapter (see Chapter 8 for details about the surface nature of nanodiamonds). © Elsevier Inc.
