The water-sol. ruthenium(II) complexes [Cp'RuX(PTA)2]Y and [CpRuCl(PPh3)(mPTA)]OTf (Cp' = Cp, Cp*, X = Cl and Y = nil; or X = MeCN and Y = PF6; PTA = 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane; mPTA = 1-methyl-1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane) were used as catalyst ...
The solubility of carbon monoxide in 37 ionic liquids and in some organic solvents has been determined using high-pressure C-13 NMR spectroscopy; a method for predicting the CO solubility is demonstrated, and it was shown that the rate of the hydroformylat ...
This paper reports on the transport of ozone O3 and related species over the North Atlantic ocean and its impact on Europe. Measurements of nitrogen dioxide (NO2)and carbon monoxide (CO) columns from the GOME and MOPITT satellite instrument ...
The EU project HOPE (Health Optimisation Protocol for Energy-efficient buildings) seeks to characterise those buildings that achieve good performance in both energy efficiency and occupant health and comfort. This project involved two stages of fieldwork: ...
As part of a collaborative, NSF-supported initiative to help develop the basic chem. needed for producing solar fuels, our group has been studying relatively inexpensive, first row transition metals that mediate electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution at unusu ...
The incorporation of carbon into the carbon monoxide and cyanide ligands of [NiFe]-hydrogenases has been investigated by using (13)C labelling in infrared studies of the Allochromatium vinosum enzyme and by (14)C labelling experiments with overproduced Hyp ...
The following chapter summarizes the various methodologies allowing the reductive cleavage of various carbon---hetereroatom single bonds or multiple bonds naming the transformation of C---N bond, C---P, C---As, C---Sb, C---Bi, C---C, C---Si, C---Ge, C---B, ...
Arene hydrogenation by homogeneous catalysts is a highly controversial area of research, with many of the mononuclear complexes shown to catalyse the reaction, being found to be pre-catalysts to nanoparticles, on closer examination. The solvent properties ...
Good quality ab initio calcns. (MP2) show that the water adducts of BX3 and CX3+ have totally different structures (X = F-I). While all H2O-BX3 complexes have classical Cs sym. structures with strong B-O bonds and addnl. H-bonding, the heavier CX3+ cations ...
Although, ferrous hemeproteins dynamics and ligand photodissocn. pathways has been discussed, less is known about the ferric hemeproteins photophys. processes. Recently, ultrafast timescale measurements of ferric HbICN (Hb I from L. pectinata) and MbCN com ...
