Coreshell bimetallic nanoparticles comprised of gold core and varying nickel shell have been synthesized, and their synergistic effect in catalysis is explored through catalytic hydrogenation of p-nitrophenol and p-nitrothiophenol. A clear evidence for synergism in Au@Ni core-shell nanoparticles having an ultrathin Ni shell (1-2 nm) around a Au core (6-10 nm) resulting in enhanced catalytic activity is observed. The rates observed from a thin nickel shell are higher than monometallic Au or Ni nanoparticles of similar size or with a thicker Ni shell of 6-8 nm.
