Abstract

Monodisperse 4 nm AuPd alloy nanoparticles with controlled composition were synthesized by co-reduction of hydrogen tetrachloroaurate(III) hydrate and palladium(II) acetylacetonate with a borane–morpholine complex in oleylamine. These NPs showed high activity (TOF = 230 h−1) and stability in catalyzing formic acid dehydrogenation and hydrogen production in water at 50 °C without any additives.
