title: Design of hybrid titania nanocrystallites as supports for gold catalysts.
abstract: Citrate-functionalized titania nanocrystallites are successfully synthesized from a heteroleptic titanium alkoxide precursor in a low temperature, hydrolytic process and used as gold catalyst supports for CO oxidation and aerobic stilbene epoxidation.
