Improving energy transfer efficiency of dye-sensitized solar cell by fine tuning of dye planarity

Two push-pull metal-free sensitizers with 5,11-dihydroindolo[3,2-b]carbazole derivatives as electron-donating groups and 4-(benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazol-4-ylethynyl)benzoic acid (BTZ) as electron-withdrawing unit, denoted by SK201 and SK202, were synthesized ...

Sub-Kelvin stereodynamics of the Ne(3P2)+N2 reaction

Andreas Osterwalder, Sean Dennis Steven Gordon, Junwen Zou

We present an experimental study of the low-energy stereodynamics of the Ne(3P2)+N2 reaction. Supersonic expansions of the two reactants are superposed in a merged beam experiment, where individual velocity control of the two beams allows us to reach avera ...

Four-electron Reduction and Functionalization of N₂ by a Uranium(III) Bridging Nitride

Marinella Mazzanti, Marta Falcone

N2 is a cheap and widely available but very unreactive molecule. Notably, the only industrial process for the conversion of dinitrogen is the Haber-Bosch process to form ammonia, but under very harsh conditions (high temperature and pressure). Here, we rev ...

Polycation Interactions with Zwitterionic Phospholipid Monolayers on Oil Nanodroplets Suspensions in Water (D2O) Probed by Sum Frequency Scattering

Sylvie Roke, Nikolay Smolentsev

By combining dynamic light scattering (DLS) measurements and infrared (IR) spectroscopy with the interface- and bond-specificity of vibrational sum frequency generation scattering (SFS) spectroscopy, we probe several structural aspects of how zwitterionic ...

Copper-Catalyzed Three-Component Carboazidation of Alkenes with Acetonitrile and Sodium Azide

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Ala Bunescu, Minh Tu Ha

A copper-catalyzed three-component reaction of alkenes, acetonitrile, and sodium azide afforded gamma-azido alkyl nitriles by formation of one C(sp3)-C(sp3) bond and one C(sp3)-N bond. The transformation allows concomitant introduction of two highly versat ...

Metathesis of a U(V) imido complex: a route to a terminal U(V) sulfide

Rosario Scopelliti, Marinella Mazzanti, Marta Falcone, Rory Patrick Kelly

Herein, we report the synthesis and characterisation of the first terminal uranium(V) sulfide and a related UV trithiocarbonate complex supported by sterically demanding tris(tert-butoxy)siloxide ligands. The reaction of the potassium-bound UV imido comple ...

Promotion Effect of Alkali Metal Hydroxides on Polymer-Stabilized Pd Nanoparticles for Selective Hydrogenation of C–C Triple Bonds in Alkynols

Paul Joseph Dyson, Lioubov Kiwi, Jeremy Luterbacher, Florent Emmanuel Héroguel

Postimpregnation of Pd nanoparticles (NPs) stabilized within hyper-cross-linked polystyrene with sodium or potassium hydroxides of optimal concentration was found to significantly increase the catalytic activity for the partial hydrogenation of the C–C tri ...

Stereoselective synthesis of alkenes via base-metal-catalyzed addition reactions to alkynes and activation of hydrogen peroxide and carbon dioxide by iron complexes

Fedor Zhurkin

Alkene functionality can be found in the majority of natural products, drugs, catalysts and organic materials. Therefore, methods of C-C double bond formation constitute a cornerstone of organic synthesis. Selective formation of either (Z)- or (E)-isomer i ...

Synthesis of Functionalized Epoxides by Copper-Catalyzed Alkylative Epoxidation of Allylic Alcohols with Alkyl Nitriles

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Ala Bunescu

A copper-catalyzed oxyalkylation of allylic alcohols using nonactivated alkyl nitriles as reaction partners was developed. A sequence involving generation of an alkyl nitrile radical followed by its addition to a double bond and a copper-mediated formation ...

CO2 conversion to isocyanate via multiple N–Si bond cleavage at a bulky uranium(III) complex

Marinella Mazzanti, Lucile Sylvie Danielle Chatelain

The reaction of the sterically saturated uranium(III) tetrasilylamido complex [K(18c6)][U(N(SiMe3)(2))(4)] with CO2 leads to CO2 insertion into the U-N bond affording the stable U(IV) isocyanate complex [K(18c6)]U(N(SiMe3)(2))(3)(NCO)(2) that was crys ...
