Pomegranate-like Core-Shell Ni-NSs@MSNSs as a High Activity, Good Stability, Rapid Magnetic Separation, and Multiple Recyclability Nanocatalyst for DCPD Hydrogenation.

ABSTRACT: A novel pomegranate-like Ni-NSs@MSNSs nanocatalyst was successfully synthesized via a modified Stöber method, and its application in the hydrogenation of dicyclopentadiene (DCPD) was firstly reported. The Ni-NSs@MSNSs possessed a high specific area (658 m²/g) and mesoporous structure (1.7-3.3 nm). The reaction of hydrogenation of DCPD to endo-tetrahydrodicyclopentadiene (endo-THDCPD) was used to evaluate the catalytic performance of the prepared materials. The distinctive pomegranate-like Ni-NSs@MSNSs core-shell nanocomposite exhibited superior catalytic activity (TOF = 106.0 h^-1 and STY = 112.7 g·L^-1·h^-1) and selectivity (98.9%) than conventional Ni-based catalysts (experimental conditions: Ni/DCPD/cyclohexane = 1/100/1000 (w/w), 1
