Abstract
Nanotechnology has revolutionized modern chemical synthesis by enabling precise control over molecular interactions, increasing reaction selectivity, and reducing environmental impact. This paper explores the applications of various nanomaterials—such as metal nanoparticles, carbon nanotubes, and nanocomposites—in catalysis, green chemistry, and organic transformations. The study highlights the advantages of nano-based catalysts over conventional systems and discusses their role in enhancing reaction efficiency, yield, and sustainability.
