Pesesse, Antoine; Carenco, Sophie published an article in 2021. The article was titled 《Influence of the copper precursor on the catalytic transformation of oleylamine during Cu nanoparticle synthesis》, and you may find the article in Catalysis Science & Technology.Application In Synthesis of Bis(acetylacetone)copper The information in the text is summarized as follows:
For optimal use of copper nanoparticles in catalysis, in-depth understanding of the reaction mechanisms and fine characterization of final products are equally relevant. Indeed, both have a direct impact on the nanoparticle core and surface. So far, most insights come from characterization techniques focusing on the inorganic component, i.e. the nanoparticle core. Mol. techniques are often overlooked and the reactions alongside the reduction of the copper precursor are not properly understood. Such understanding is mandatory to properly interpret the nanoparticle behavior in catalytic processes. Here, copper nanoparticle synthesis was studied by thorough characterization of the organic reactions happening during the synthesis, quant. by 1H NMR and qual. by infra-red spectroscopy (IR) and electrospray ionisation-mass spectrometry (ESI-MS). The reduction of copper(II) acetate (Cu(OAc)2) by oleylamine resulted in a high amount of water and few byproducts while the reduction of copper(II) acetylacetonate (Cu(acac)2) resulted in a low amount of water and many products. The resulting nanoparticles showed different abilities to further dehydrogenate and transaminate oleylamine in the synthesis reaction pot. This was explained by the presence of a copper oxide phase in the nanoparticles prepared from copper acetate. In the experiment, the researchers used Bis(acetylacetone)copper(cas: 13395-16-9Application In Synthesis of Bis(acetylacetone)copper)
Bis(acetylacetone)copper(cas: 13395-16-9) is used as PVC stabilizer, and curing agents for epoxy resins, acrylic adhesives and silicone rubbers. It is also used as solvents, lubricant additives, paint drier, and pesticides.Application In Synthesis of Bis(acetylacetone)copper
