Title: Catalysts Intercalated in Layered Double Hydroxides
Abstract: Layered double hydroxides (LDHs), also referred to as LDHs, are lamellar mixed hydroxides containing positively charged main layers and interlayered anions. LDHs have received substantial attention from both industry and academia, owing to their important properties such as acid-base properties, anion and cation-exchange ability, adsorption capacity, and exhibiting memory effect. Among numerous applications of LDHs, catalysis has been extensively studied. This book chapter is focused on the recent development in LDHs-intercalated catalysts and their utilities for various chemical processes. In the first section of this chapter, a brief overview of LDH structural properties, synthetic procedures, and applications is provided. In the next section, various catalytic species including polyoxometalates, complexes, nanoparticles, mesoporous silica, and chiral ligands intercalated in an interlayer of LDHs are discussed in more detail to highlight the merits of confining a catalyst into the LDH host.
