The main aim of this dissertation is to study the catalytic aspects of very small transition metal clusters supported on h-BN/Rh(111). The catalytic reactions of interest were ammonia synthesis and CO oxidation on mass selected and soft landed iron and pla ...
In recent years ionic liquids have emerged as an important class of compounds for the synthesis of metal nanoparticles. The significant advantage of using ionic liquids is their dual role of reaction solvent and nanoparticle stabilizer. The variability of ...
Substantial signal enhancements achieved by using parahydrogen in catalytic hydrogenations are powerful tools for mechanistic studies of chemical reactions involving molecular H-2. Potentially, this technique can be extended to other reaction classes, prov ...
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 ...
The chemical transformation of CO2 and bicarbonates into useful products becomes increasingly impor- tant as the atmospheric CO2 level has reached 400 ppm. Here a small library of sulfonated aryl mono- phosphines and aryl diphosphines was tested as stabili ...
A new type lead-free catalyst of a Pd-Cu2O nanocomposite was developed for highly selective semi-hydrogenation of alkynes. With unprecedented selectivity for the semi-hydrogenation of terminal alkynes to alkenes, we show for the first time that the catalys ...
As a result of detailed mechanistic and kinetic studies, we have proposed that PdX2-catalyzed oxidative coupling of o-alkynylanilines 1 with terminal alkynes 2 under aerobic conditions is initiated by aminopalladation of 1 followed by ligand exchange of th ...
Cyclopentenones are versatile structural motifs of natural products as well as reactive synthetic intermediates. The nickel-catalyzed reductive [3+2] cycloaddition of alpha,beta-unsaturated aromatic esters and alkynes constitutes an efficient method for th ...
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 ...
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 ...
