Significance

Rhodium nanoparticle catalysts coated with a modified polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) were developed. The Rh nanoparticles (NPs) coated with 1 (1-Rh) exhibited thermal and catalytic stability compared to Rh NPs coated with PVP (PVP-Rh). Hydrogenation of aromatic substrates was performed with 1-Rh, or 2-Rh to give the corresponding cyclohexanes.
