Abstract

The effect of particle size on the asymmetric catalytic properties of supported ligand-functionalized nanoparticles (NPs) was investigated for the first time and found to alter significantly the activity but surprisingly not the stereoselectivity. These results suggest that the stereoselectivity of these complex systems is primarily determined by the ligand-reactant interaction, whereas the activity is determined by the particle size.
