Abstract
We discuss studies of photo and thermally driven reactions which illustrate the unique catalytic features of nanoclusters which may be of great technical utility. The application of photocatalysts of nanosize MoS 2 to oxidize organic pollutants to CO 2 is discussed. Nanosize MoS 2 shows improved rates of oxidation of organics such as phenol compared to alternative bulk powders such as TiO 2 or ZnO. Selective hydrogenation of pyrene using both dispersed and supported nanoclusters of Rh, Pt, and Pd is also discussed.
