Abstract
Heterogeneous nanocatalysis in solution-based reactions has been significantly explored in the past decade in hopes of developing highly recoverable and reusable catalysts. The vast amount of research in heterogeneous nanocatalysis by metal colloids has not yet uncovered the true mechanism behind the catalytic nature of such materials. From studies of catalytic shape dependence and nanoparticle stability during the course of various reactions, evidence has been reported that supports both homogeneous and heterogeneous mechanistic views. In this chapter the evidence of nanocatalyst shape dependence and stability is discussed with conclusions drawn on homogeneous and heterogeneous mechanisms.
