The main objectives of this work are 2-fold : The development of a novel type of composite material based on carbon nanofibers supported on sintered metal fibers filters (CNF/SMF) and to explore the use of this material as a catalytic support for a model r ...
With four site: Catalytic olefin hydrogenation is observed with palladium complexes when the N-heterocyclic carbene ligand is changed from the normal C2- to the unusual C4-bonding mode (see scheme). In a cis coordinating framework, the electron density at ...
The tetradentate chelate ligand tris[(1-vinylimidazol-2-yl)methyl]amine (10) was synthesized in five steps from commercially available starting materials. Upon reaction with MCl2 (M = Zn, Cu, Ni, Co) in the presence of NH4PF6, the complexes [M(10)Cl]PF6 (M ...
High-pressure NMR mechanistic investigations into the promoting role of dicarbonyldiiodoplatinum complex in the iridium-catalysed carbonylation of methanol to acetic acid are consistent with iodide abstraction from the [IrI3(CH3)(CO)2]– resting state speci ...
A biomimetic four-helix bundle with a binuclear active site (DF1), bearing Zn, Mn or Fe as transition metals, has been synthesized and characterized. The carboxylate bridged binuclear motif of DF1 resembles the active site of numerous binuclear enzymes, su ...
The replication process is presented and discussed with emphasis on methods for microstructural tailoring of open-pore microcellular aluminium-based foams, highlighting methods it offers for control of principal foam mesostructural and microstructural para ...

The biogeochemical cycle of copper and cadmium has been studied in two forested ecosystems for two years. These two sites are: a) a Norway spruce forest (Picea abies) on an acid brown soil (FAQ: Dystric cambisol) and b) a mixed coniferous forest (Picea abi ...
