Organic tracer-based positive matrix factorization (PMF) was used to apportion fine particulate (PM2.5) organic carbon (OC) to its sources in Centreville, AL, USA, a rural forested site influenced by anthropogenic emissions, during the Southern Oxidant and ...
In homogeneous catalysis, the structure and electronic config-uration of the active catalysts can vary significantly. Changes inligation, oxidation, and spin states have the potential to influ-ence the catalytic cycle energet ics strongly that, to a larged ...
During the 2013 Southern Oxidant and Aerosol Study, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and aerosol mass spectrometer (AMS) measurements of submicron mass were collected at Look Rock (LRK), Tennessee, and Centreville (CTR), Alabama. Carbon monox ...
In this work, we studied catalytic formic acid dehydrogenation with a homogeneous RAPTA type precatalyst in aqueous solution. The effects of an amino group, attached to the arene, and the impact of a second equivalent of 1,3,5‐triaza‐7‐phosphaadamantane (P ...
Large reductions of sulfur and nitrogen oxide emissions in the United States have led to considerable improvements in air quality, though recent analyses in the Southeastern United States have shown little response of aerosol pH to these reductions. This s ...
The deactivation pathways of sulfonated carbon catalysts prepared from different carbons were studied during the aqueous‐phase hydrolysis of cellobiose under continuous‐flow conditions. The sulfonation of carbon materials with a low degree of graphitizatio ...
We report herein two Lewis acid catalyst-steered distinct reaction pathways of N-formylmethyl tertiary enamides. In the presence of a catalytic amount of AlCl3 and 4 angstrom molecular sieves, the stable N-formylmethyl tertiary enamides underwent sequentia ...
Log wood burning is a significant source of volatile organic compounds including aromatic hydrocarbons (ArHC). ArHC are harmful, are reactive in the ambient atmosphere, and are important secondary organic aerosol (SOA) precursors. Consequently, SOA represe ...
We report the synthesis of thin, highly intergrown, polycrystalline metal-organic framework (MOF) membranes on a wide range of unmodified porous and non-porous supports (polymer, ceramic, metal, carbon, and graphene). We developed a novel crystallization t ...
Developments in computational chemistry, bioinformatics, and laboratory evolution have facilitated the de novo design and catalytic optimization of enzymes. Besides creating useful catalysts, the generation and iterative improvement of designed enzymes can ...
