Gold nanoparticles of 2–5 nm supported on woven fabrics of activated carbon fibers (ACF) were effective during CO oxidation at room temperature. To obtain a high metal dispersion, Au was deposited on ACF from aqueous solution of ethylenediamine complex [Au ...
This work covers homogeneous and biphasic catalysis in ionic liquids and water. The work presented herein is divided into two major parts: catalytic hydrogenation and catalytic hydroformylation. The first part also serves as an introduction to catalysis in ...
Biphasic and multiphasic processes have emerged as effective methods to reduce the amount of volatile organic solvents used in the manufacture of chemicals. In this article some of the research conducted in my laboratory in this domain utilizing ionic liqu ...
A series of imidazolium salts with the nitrile functional group attached to the alkyl side chain, viz. [C(n)CNmim][X] (where C(n)CNmim is the 1-alkylnitrile-3-methylimidazolium cation and C-n = (CH2)(n), n = 1-4; X = Cl, PF6, and BF4) and [C(3)CNdmim][X] ( ...
The diphosphane-substituted clusters [Ru-3(CO)(10)(dppe)] and [Ru-3(CO)(8)(dppe)(2)] [dppe = 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)ethane] are shown to catalytically hydrogenate diphenylacetylene. This process is highly solvent-dependent with fragmentation dominating ...
This review seeks to evaluate the role of low oxidation state transition metal clusters (metal carbonyl clusters) in catalysis. The review commences with a discussion of the cluster surface analogy and then proceeds to discuss whether catalysis takes place ...
As a consequence of inherently weak interactions between the chloride anion and the 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium cation (ca. 15 kJ/mol), chloride dissociation from a transition-metal complex can be thermodynamically disfavored in ionic liquids. Therefore, w ...
Many low oxidation state transition metal (carbonyl) clusters are salts and are highly soluble in ionic liquids. Since many are also effective catalysts/precatalysts for hydrogenation reactions, we have conducted a catalytic study of these compounds in ion ...
The phosphido-substituted triruthenium cluster Ru-3(CO)(9)(mu-H)(mu-PPh2) is shown to react with H-2 to form the trihydride cluster Ru-3(CO)(9)(H)(mu-H)(2)(mu-PPh2), which undergoes a number of re-arrangement reactions on heating to yield other phosphido-s ...
