Desulfinylation of Prop-2-enesulfinic Acid: Experimental Results and Mechanistic Theoretical Analysis

The potential energy surfaces of the desulfinylation of prop-2-enesulfinic acid (13) in CH2Cl2 solution at -15 degrees C have been explored by quantum calculations and analyzed with kinetic data obtained for the reaction in absence or presence of additives ...

Proton dynamics in superprotonic CsHSO(4)

Nicola Marzari

We present a detailed study of proton dynamics in the hydrogen-bonded superprotonic conductor CsHSO(4) from first-principles molecular dynamics simulations, isolating the subtle interplay between the dynamics of the O-H chemical bonds, the O center dot cen ...

Ruthenium nanoparticles intercalated in hectorite: A reusable hydrogenation catalyst for benzene and toluene

Gabor Laurenczy, André Meister

The cationic organometallic aqua complexes formed by hydrolysis of [(C 6H6)RuCl2]2 in water, mainly [(C6H6)Ru(H2O)3]2+, intercalate into sodium hectorite by ion exchange, replacing the sodium cations between the anionic silicate layers. The yellow hectorit ...
