Seed-Mediated Solid-Phase Synthesis of Carbon-Confined Ni3Ga1 Intermetallic Nanocubes for Highly Selective Hydrogenation

Caption

In this study, a novel facile and versatile solid phase seed-mediated confined strategy is reported for the synthesis of atomically ordered non-precious Ni3Ga1 intermetallic nanocubes encapsulated in N-doped carbon layer. The resulting confined nanocubes demonstrate exceptional activity and exclusive selectivity in the 1,4-hydrogenation of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds while maintaining high stability over multiple reaction cycles without performance degradation.
