Core (WO_x) – Shell (oleylamine) ~2 nm nanoparticles were synthesized using a solvothermal method & were deposited on SiO₂ support to study their propylene metathesis activity. The removal of oleylamine generated samples that were more active & selective than impregnated samples due to less aggregation of the WO_xspecies.
