Inspired by Nature several groups have developed structural and functional iron complexes mimicking the active site of the iron-hydrogenases, which show high reactivity in the H2 cleavage. Usually pendant bases have been incorporated onto families of Fe co ...
Metal organic supramolecular chemistry on surfaces has matured to a point where its underlying growth mechanisms are well understood and structures of defined coordination environments of metal atoms can be synthesized in a controlled and reproducible proc ...
Catalyst design is of major importance for fine chemicals industry due to
complexity of the synthesis and high product quality requirements. Moreover, the
catalyst formulation has to comply with the standards of health, safety and
environmental regulati ...
Catalytic system of Au nanoparticles supported on metal oxides has been developed to produce azoarenes in one-step directly from nitroarenes under mild conditions (30 °C, 1 bar of N2) using 2-propanol as solvent and reducing agent. Close to 100 % chemosele ...
A major challenge in the face of increasing global energy demand is the development of alternative environmentally friendly and renewable energy resources. Hydrogen is an excellent energy carrier, but has drawbacks in storage density and is dangerous to ha ...
With increasing emphasis placed on cleaner chemical synthesis, energy efficiency and waste minimisation, the manufacture of pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals is undergoing a progressive shift from conventional stoichiometric organic processes to a harness ...
Intermetallic compounds are a promising class of materials as stable and selective heterogeneous catalysts. Here, the (111) and (-1-1-1) single crystal surfaces of the PdGa intermetallic compound were studied as model catalysts with regard to the selective ...
The aim of this work is to study the activity of new Pd catalysts, supported on two different nano structured carbon materials, for bromate catalytic hydrogenation. The influence of the support has been studied, obtaining the best results with a palladium ...
Structured catalyst has been developed for C–C triple bond three-phase hydrogenation. The sintered metal fiber (SMF) coated by different oxides served as support for monodispersed Pd nanoparticles (6.4 ± 0.5 nm). The effect of acid–base properties and redu ...
We demonstrate that the combination of x-ray irradiation and capping by polyethylene glycol (PEG) produces excellent flexibility in controlling the structure of Au-Pd nanoparticles while preserving their catalytic performance. We specifically adopted two d ...
