Outline of Final Research Achievements

Metal nanoparticle-embedded porous diamond spherical particles were fabricated for active and stable heterogeneous catalyst. From the result of a test using cyclohexane dehydrogenation reaction, the Pt nanoparticle-embedded porous diamond spherical particle (PtNP@PDSP) was found to be more active and stable than commercial Pt-supported carbon black catalyst. Pd nanoparticle-embedded porous diamond spherical particle, fabricated by a similar procedure to PtNP@PDSP, showed higher catalytic activity to Suzuki coupling reaction with various conditions than conventional Pd-supported activated carbon catalyst. Therefore, the concept of metal nanoparticle-embedded porous diamond spherical particle should be a versatile and effective way to fabricate active and stable heterogeneous catalysts.
