Hydrogen holds the potential to be an alternative to replace fossil fuels in the future. The tremendous research effort dedicated to the issue of hydrogen storage has led to considerable advancements in the development of both adsorption materials and chem ...
Supported metal catalysts are important from both an industrial and a scientific point of view. They are used, amongst others, in large-scale processes such as catalytic reforming, hydrotreating, polymerization reactions and hydrogenations. Often, these ca ...
Mono-N-arylation of benzamidines 1 with aryl boronic acids 2 was effectively achieved in the presence of a catalytic amount of Cu(OAc)2 and NaOPiv under mild aerobic conditions. Combining this step with an intramolecular direct CH bond functionalization, c ...
A method for the Friedel-Crafts-type insertion reaction of acetylene with acid chlorides in chloroaluminate ionic liquids is presented. The use of Ionic liquids not only serves to avoid the use of carbon tetrachloride or 1,2-dichloroethane but also suppres ...
The rapid and modular synthesis of the first bifunctional N-heterocyclic carbenes bearing a (thio)urea moiety as H-bond donor group was reported. Different analogues could be accessed in seven steps from cheap (S)-pyroglutamic acid in good overall yields ( ...
The ruthenium(II)-triphos acetato complex [RuCl(OAc)(k3-triphos)] (triphos = (PPh2CH2)3CMe) has been found to be an active catalyst precursor for the hydrogenation of 1-alkenes under relatively mild conditions (5-50 bar H2, 50 °C). In contrast to related t ...
Structured supported ionic liquid-phase (SSILP) catalysis is a new concept with the advantages of ionic liquids (ILs) used as solvents for homogeneous catalyst and the further benefits of structured heterogeneous catalysts. This is achieved by confining th ...
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 ...
In ionic liqs. (ILs), the activation of a ruthenium(II) catalyst precursor occurs via an unexpected mechanism, which is different from the activation mechanism that takes place in water. The effectiveness of a biphasic catalytic hydrogenation reaction usin ...
Homo- and heterobimetallic complexes of the late transitions metals have been synthesized by metathesis reactions of the corresponding chloro-bridged dimers. These reactions have the advantage of being fast and giving rise to structurally defined products ...
