Cover Story: Well-dispersed and narrow-sized (1.3-2.2 nm) ruthenium nanoparticles (RuNPs) were synthesized in various functionalized imidazolium ionic liquids (ILs) using the organometallic approach. The interaction between RuNPs and ILs was studied via thermal gravimetric analysis and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. NPs stabilized with methoxy-based ILs showed a good balance between catalytic activity and stability in the hydrogenation of styrene under mild reaction conditions (5 bar; 30 °C) and exhibited total selectivity towards ethylbenzene compared to that of other RuNP catalysts reported in the literature.
