Abstract

We for the first time have synthesized Ag/ZrO₂ nanocomposites from silver mirror reaction in toluene, which refers to the reduction of silver–dodecylamine complexes by acetaldehyde (CH₃CHO) in the presence of ZrO₂ nanocrystals. The obtained nanocomposites show excellent catalytic activity in the successive reduction of p-nitrophenol (4-NP) by NaBH₄.
