Kick‐starting a new journey with metal NPs: For π‐acid catalysis, a journey from homogeneous to heterogeneous reactions has begun. Metal nanoparticles supported on metal oxides or monodispersed nanoparticles are reported to exhibit significant electrophilic character in CC bond activation enabling reactions, which, to date, have been catalyzed under homogeneous metal catalysis.
