%X The urgent issues related to the catalytic processes and energy applications have accelerated the development of hybrid and smart materials. MXenes are a new family of atomic layered nanostructured materials that require considerable research. Tailorable morphologies, strong electrical conductivity, great chemical stability, large surface-to-volume ratios, tunable structures, among others are some significant characteristics that make MXenes appropriate for various electrochemical reactions, including dry reforming of methane, hydrogen evolution reaction, methanol oxidation reaction, sulfur reduction reaction, Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction, water-gas shift reaction, and so forth. MXenes, on the other hand, have a fundamental drawback of agglomeration, as well as poor long-term recyclability and stability. One possibility for overcoming the restrictions is the fusion of nanosheets or nanoparticles with MXenes. Herein, the relevant literature on the synthesis, catalytic stability and reusability, and applications of several MXene-based nanocatalysts are deliberated including the merits and cons of the newer MXene-based catalysts.
