Stuck together: adenine/carbon nanotube hybrids trigger the formation of controlled-size catalytic silver nanoparticles on the nanotube surface. The catalytic efficiency of the resulting species was assessed in the oxidation of 2-methylhydroquinone to its corresponding benzoquinone, with complete recovery and without loss of activity of the catalyst.
