MnO(x) Nanoparticle-Dispersed CeO2 Nanocubes: A Remarkable Heteronanostructured System with Unusual Structural Characteristics and Superior Catalytic Performance.

Understanding the interface-induced effects of heteronanostructured catalysts remains a significant challenge due to their structural complexity, but it is crucial for developing novel applied catalytic materials. This work reports a systematic characterization and catalytic evaluation of MnOx nanoparticle-dispersed CeO2 nanocubes for two important industrial applications, namely, diesel soot oxidation and continuous-flow benzylamine oxidation. The X-ray diffraction and Raman studies reveal an unusual lattice expansion in CeO2 after the addition of MnOx.

Triphenylphosphine oxide-1-naphthoic acid (1/1).

In the title compound, C18H15OP.C11H8O2, co-crystallization of triphenylphosphine oxide with 1-naphthoic acid yields a supramolecular structure held together by one O-H..

Triphenylphosphine oxide-3-chlorobenzoic acid (1/1).

In the title compound, C(18)H(15)OP.C(7)H(5)ClO(2), the triphenylphosphine oxide molecule forms a single directed hydrogen bond with the 3-chlorobenzoic acid molecule, with an O.O=P distance of 2.
