Nanocrystalline Cu-MOF-74 was synthesised in methanol at room temperature, and it used the catalytic synthesis of vanillin showing its reaction mechanism.
The MOF-type MIL-53(Al)-TDC was demonstrated to be an optimal adsorbent for H2S capture combining unprecedented uptake at room temperature, excellent cyclability and low-temperature regeneration.
Mg-CUK-1 showed a 1.8-fold increase in CO<sub>2</sub> capture (from 4.6 wt% to 8.5 wt%) the presence of 18% RH.
EtOH adsorption–desorption properties of MIL-53(Al)-TDC along with the confinement small amounts water to enhance its CO<sub>2</sub>capture, and reversible capture iodine are presented in this article.
The confinement of small amounts i-PrOH demonstrated and enhanced CO<sub>2</sub>capture for InOF-1 as a result the bottleneck effect formation essential hydrogen bonds.
We report a well-defined homogeneous nickel-based catalyst using the complex [dippeNi(COD)] (dippe=1,2-bis(diisopropyl phosphino)ethane) as catalytic precursor with high activity in hydrogenation of levulinic acid (LVA) to yield γ-valerolactone (GVL) under relatively mild conditions (4 h, 120 °C); formic (FA) is transfer agent dehydrogenation-hydrogenation process. Under optimized conditions, GVL was obtained excellent (>99 %) and selectivity %). The Ni-catalyst assessed LVA variety primary...
Abstract We report the first well‐defined homogeneous copper‐based catalyst for levulinic acid (LVA) hydrogenation using complex [(PPh 3 ) 2 Cu(k ‐O,O‐LVA)] as a copper source and (1,2‐bis(diisopropyl phosphino)ethane (dippe) an ancillary ligand. This catalytic precursor has high activity in LVA yields γ‐valerolactone (GVL) under relatively mild reaction conditions (24 h, 140 °C) base‐free system H (300 psi) reductant. Under optimized conditions, GVL was obtained with excellent yield (>99...
Hydrogen evolution is an important fuel-generating reaction that has been subject to mechanistic debate about the roles of monometallic and bimetallic pathways. In this study, molecular iridium catalysts undergo photoelectrochemical dihydrogen afford a rare opportunity systematically understand factors promote H–H coupling. Covalently tethered diiridium evolve H2 from neutral water faster than catalysts, even at lower overpotential. The origin improvement noncovalent supramolecular...
