The most significant papers that appeared in the literature from January 2010 to July 2014 have been covered.Their uses in unselective processes,bulk chemicals production.fuel cells compo. nents,as well as the use of metal-free ion-exchange resins in acid/base.catalysed reactions.were not included. @2015,Dalian Institute ofChemical Physics,Chinese Academy ofSciences.

Due to increasingly severe regulations and economic con。 straints,the development of cost-effective production technol・ ogy with minimal energy consumption,environmental impact and C02 emissions is a major drive at the global level[1,2】.This is particularly urgent in the fine chemical sector where stoi— chiometric reactions,toxic additives,protecting groups,sophis— ticated promoters and the number of processing steps required to achieve high selectivity ultimately results in the highest E-factors【3,4】.A solution is to leverage catalysis to increase resource and energy efficiency,by designing novel active mate— rials and green processes through a smarter use of feedstocks and reagents.Among the strategies developed over the last decades,the use of chemical catalysts immobilized on insoluble materials has been preferred by industry owing to the signifi— cant benefits in terms of recover and reuse of expensive cata— lysts,and easier separation and purification procedures[5,6】. Solid—supported metal nanoparticles(MNP)are perfectly suited to this purpose owing to their versatility and because they mimic metal surface activation at the nanoscale,thereby bringing selectivity and efficiency to heterogeneous catalysis 【7,8】.However,achieving 100%selectivity and long-term productivity at low energy costs requires careful tuning of the MNP properties,as well as of the interplay with their active environment,including stabilizers,support material and rea— gents[9,10].This task is not trivial because the preparation of efficient heterOgeneous MNP catalysts is often complicated by multiple issues:…lack of control over MNP size and distribu. tion,(ii)lack of reproducibility,(iii)lack of stability under reac- tion conditions,and(iv)applicability only to specific reac- tion—support combinations『11,12].Further drawbacks in MNP synthesis relate to the need of hazardous reducing reagents, toxic modifiers,harsh conditions or sophisticated equipment 【13,14]. Compared with other materials,ion—exchange resins offer

Ion—exchange resins are commercially available in the solid state as powders,pellets(16—400 mesh,1200—40一pm diame・ ter)【49,50】or membranes【51,s2].Foams and monolithic ion—exchanging polymers have also been reported for use in 

laboratories『53.54].The shape and size of these materials al— low for their easy and quantitative recovery for reuse by simple filtration or decantati0n.This iS often not the case for other powdered materials commonly used for catalyst support(e.g., silica.zeolites.carbon.etc.1.When the particle size iS less than 1 ¨m,the catalyst may not se仕le out of solution over SUmciently short time,thUS catalyst separation may require centrifugation or ultrafiltration.Very fine powders may also clog or poison the Table1 1159 reactors or autoclaves employed in catalytic experiments.In a few instances。the recovery of resin beads may require not US— ing magnetic stirring to avoid grinding[46]. Common uses of ion・exchange resins include water purifi— cation,metal recovery and separation,ion substitution,ac— id—base catalysis,and as sensors or as solid electrolytes(e.g.,in fuel cells,electrolysers,electrodialysis devices)【55]. 3.Synthesis of MNP@resin Ion--exchange resin--supported MNP catalysts have been re・・ ported with a variety of noble metals(Pd,Ru,Au,Ag Rh,Pt), with palladium and rhodium being the most and the least ex— plored,respectively[56].Regardless of the metal and the resin
