This mini-review summarizes some novel aspects of reactions conducted in aqueous/organic emulsions stabilized by carbon nanohybrids functionalized with catalytic species. Carbon nanohybrids represent a family of solid catalysts that not only can stabilize water-oil emulsions in the same fashion as Pickering emulsions, but also catalyze reactions at the liquid/liquid interface. Several examples are discussed in this mini-review. They include (a) aldol condensation-hydrodeoxygenation tandem reactions catalyzed by basic (MgO) and metal (Pd) catalysts, respectively; (b) Fischer-Tropsch synthesis catalyzed by carbon-nanotube-supported Ru; and (c) emulsion polymerization of styrene for the production of conductive polymer composites. Conducting these reactions in emulsion generates important advantages, such as increased liquid/liquid interfacial area that consequently means faster mass transfer rates of molecules between the two phases, effective separation of products from the reaction mixture by differences in the water-oil solubility, and significant changes in product selectivity that can be adjusted by modifying the emulsion characteristics.
