Effect of the TiO2 Reduction State on the Catalytic CO Oxidation on Deposited Size-Selected Pt Clusters

Harald Brune, Wolfgang Harbich, Simon Bonanni

The catalytic activity of deposited Pt-7 clusters has been studied as a function of the reduction state of the TiO2(110)-(1 x 1) support for the CO oxidation reaction. While a slightly reduced support gives rise to a high catalytic activity of the adpartic ...

β-Molybdenum nitride: synthesis mechanism and catalytic response in the gas phase hydrogenation of p-chloronitrobenzene

Lioubov Kiwi, Fernando Cardenas Lizana

A temperature programmed treatment of MoO3 in flowing N-2 + H-2 has been employed to prepare beta-phase molybdenum nitride (beta-Mo2N) which has been used to promote, for the first time, the catalytic hydrogenation of p-chloronitrobenzene. The reduction/ni ...

Defunctionalization of fructose and sucrose: Iron-catalyzed production of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural from fructose and sucrose

Paul Joseph Dyson, Ning Yan, Yuehui Li

A highly efficient iron-catalyzed production of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) from sugar is reported. The dehydration of fructose and sucrose has been studied in the presence of different iron salts and co-catalysts. As a result, it was found that fructose ...

An experimental setup combining a highly sensitive detector for reaction products with a mass-selected cluster source and a low-temperature STM for advanced nanocatalysis measurements

Harald Brune, Wolfgang Harbich, Michael Hugentobler, Simon Bonanni

We report on a home-built detector for catalytic reaction measurements offering good gas isolation from the surrounding ultrahigh vacuum components, high sensitivity for reaction products and a fast response time of 10 ms enabling dynamic studies correlate ...

Nitrous Oxide Abatement over Fe-Zeolite

Bryan Bromley

The use of zeolites for catalytic reactions is a field in continuous development. Since it was demonstrated that metal-zeolites are efficient catalysts for NOx abatement, decomposition of nitrous oxide (N2O) over Fe-containing zeolites has attracted great ...

Metal Clusters on Surfaces

Michael Hugentobler

The morphology, stability and reactivity of nanometre-sized particles (Au, Pt) is investigated on three different supports. Gold nanoparticles with a diameter comprised between 4 and 6nm are stabilized in nanosized pits of well defined depth in highly orie ...

Pd Nanoparticles in a Supported Ionic Liquid Phase: Highly Stable Catalysts for Selective Acetylene Hydrogenation under Continuous-Flow Conditions

Paul Joseph Dyson, Lioubov Kiwi, Gabor Laurenczy, Marina Ruta

Monodispersed Pd nanoparticles of 5 and 10 nm were obtained via reduction of Pd(acac)2 dissolved in ionic liquid (IL), [bmim][PF6], or [bmimOH][TF2N], supported on carbon nanofibers (CNF) anchored to sintered metal fibers (SMF). Using [bmimOH][TF2N], the m ...

Fast temperature cycling of the catalytic CO oxidation using microstructure reactors

Martin Luther

The possibility to increase the performance (productivity or selectivity) of a chemical reactor by using periodic variations of reaction parameters (e.g. reactant concentration or temperature) has been theoretically envisaged since the beginning of the 70t ...

Three-Phase Catalytic Hydrogenation of a Functionalized Alkyne: Mass Transfer and Kinetic Studies with in Situ Hydrogen Monitoring

Albert Renken, Lioubov Kiwi, Martin Grasemann

Systematic studies of mass transfer interactions with intrinsic reaction kinetics were performed for the threephase selective hydrogenation of 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol (MBY) to 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol (MBE) over a modified Pd/CaC

(Pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)iridium-PTA (PTA = 1,3,5-Triaza-7-phosphaadamantane) Complexes and Their Application in Catalytic Water Phase Carbon Dioxide Hydrogenation

Paul Joseph Dyson, Gabor Laurenczy, Andrew Douglas Phillips

The water-soluble iridium(III) complexes [CpIr(PTA)Cl2] (1) and [CpIr(PTA)2Cl]Cl (2) (PTA = 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane) have been synthesised and characterised by spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. The complexes were evaluated as catalyst prec ...
