Graphdiyne bearing pillar[5]arene-reduced Au nanoparticles for enhanced catalytic performance towards the reduction of 4-nitrophenol and methylene blue.

ABSTRACT: Graphdiyne (GD), a novel two dimensional (2D) carbon material, has earned a lot of attention in recent years. Constructing a novel hybrid nanomaterial based on GD, macrocyclic host and Au nanoparticles is an effective strategy for heterogeneous catalysis applications. While tremendous advancements in the preparation of two dimensional (2D) materials anchoring Au nanoparticles have been made, it is an urgent requirement to explore a green, efficient and facile approach for obtaining small-sized Au nanoparticles. The use of the 2D material graphdiyne (GD) presents more-promising candidates for constructing excellent sites for loading metal nanoparticles. In this study, a novel 2D heterogeneous hybrid nanomaterial (P5A-Au-GD) based on GD and pillar[5]arene (P5A)-reduced Au nanoparticles (P5A-
