A homogenous catalytic system has been developed that efficiently and selectively decomposes formic acid into hydrogen and carbon dioxide. [Ru(H2O)6]2+, [Ru(H2O)6]3+ and RuCl3·xH2O are all excellent precatalysts in presence of TPPTS (TPPTS=meta-trisulfonat ...
The main obstacles in the widespread use of hydrogen as energetic alternative to fossil fuels are storage problems intrinsically linked to its extremely light and explosive nature. Since no ideal storage systems currently exist, reversible fixation of hydr ...
The present invention relates to a method of producing hydrogen gas and carbon dioxide in a catalytic reaction from formic acid, said reaction being conducted in an aqueous solution over a wide temperature range and already at room temperature (25 DEG C). ...
Ruthenium(II)-arene diphosphine complexes are shown to be effective precursors for the catalytic hydrogenation of the C=C bond in an aqueous biphase using molecular hydrogen as the hydrogen source. A mechanistic study performed in water, utilizing high gas ...
The water soluble ruthenium(II) complex [RuCl2(PTA)([9]aneS3)] (PTA = 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphadamantane, [9]aneS3 = 1,4,7-trithiacyclononane) catalyzes the hydrogenation of CO2 and bicarbonate in aqueous solution. ...
The homogeneous catalytic system, based on water-soluble ruthenium(II)– TPPTS catalyst (TPPTS = meta-trisulfonated triphenylphosphine), selectively decomposes HCOOH into H2 and CO2 in aqueous solution. Although this reaction results in only two gas product ...
Hydrogenation of C60 at 2 GPa and 723-823 K was performed with thermal decompn. of LiAlH4 as a hydrogen source. Anal. of hydrogenation products showed that the method can produce not only C60H36, but also hydrofullerides C60Hx with 44 < x < 52. Unlike othe ...
Dehydrohalogenation of haloaromatics in ionic liquids derived from ethylmethylimidazolium or similar salts has been performed using Pd-C, Pd(OAc)2 and other catalysts using formate salts as a hydrogen source. In the ionic liquid [emim][BF4< ...
Bis-phosphine Ru(II)-arene complexes are highly active and chemoselective catalysts for the hydrogenation of aldehydes in the presence of olefinic bonds. Mechanistic studies, including comparisons with a structural analog, reactions of an isolated hydride ...
Hydrogenation of bicarbonates in water: By using a ruthenium-based catalytic system hydrogenation of sodium bicarbonate was achieved in water in comparable high TONs and yields. The hydrogenation of sodium bicarbonate takes place with the catalytic system ...
