Ligand utilization is a necessary and powerful technique for the colloidal synthesis of nanoparticles (NPs) with controllable sizes regulated morphologies. For catalysis applications, it commonly believed that surface ligands on metal NPs block active catalytic sites reduce activity. Nevertheless, since 2010, an increasing number research groups have demonstrated unexpected benefits improve activity and/or selectivity. These can be ascribed to construction inorganic–organic interface, through which series factors, such as steric, electronic, solubility effects, utilized produce favorable changes interfacial environment. Considering tremendous developments in this emerging field, compile comprehensive systematic overview recent advances. In Review, we summarize critical impacts heterogeneous nanocatalysis. First, introduce vital roles colloid syntheses shapes. Second, detrimental effects nanocatalysis are described basis traditional views. Third, strategies ligand removal reviewed compared. Fourth, has been conducted past decade, three main beneficial (steric, solubility) classified discussed. each effect, possible corresponding mechanism presented, typical examples provided. Recent advances regarding density functional theory (DFT) calculations regulation coverage dedicated explaining ligand-promotion searching optimal nanocatalysts. Fifth, stabilities cutting-edge ligand-capped nanocatalysts before after reactions Finally, highlight remaining challenges propose future perspectives. Although much progress achieved, activities multifaceted still debatable. We hope Review will deepen readers' understanding actual catalysis.

A simple and sensitive fluorescent assay for detecting alkaline phosphatase (ALP) based on the inner filter effect (IFE) has been proven, which is conceptually different from previously reported ALP assays. In this sensing platform, N-doped carbon dots (CDs) with a high quantum yield of 49% were prepared by one-pot synthesis directly used as fluorophore in IFE. p-Nitrophenylphosphate (PNPP) was employed to act an substrate, its enzyme catalytic product (p-nitrophenol (PNP)) capable functioning powerful absorber IFE influence excitation (CDs). When presence ALP, PNPP transformed into PNP induced absorption band transition 310 405 nm, resulted complementary overlap between CDs. Because competitive absorption, CDs significantly weakened, resulting quenching The present IFE-based strategy showed good linear relationship 0.01 25 U/L (R2 = 0.996) provided exciting detection limit 0.001 (signal-to-noise ratio 3). proposed approach successfully applied serum samples, inhibitor investigation cell imaging. presented fluorescence gives new insight development facile optical probe activity because surface modification or linking receptor no longer required.
