A ruthenium meso-tetra[4-(vinylbenzoxy)benzyl]porphyrin catalyst with four meso-polymerizable side chains was synthesized in three steps from commercially available starting materials. The polymerizable side chains allowed the incorporation of this complex ...
Development of selective oxidation catalysts is a major concern of modern chemical industry. Among several systems, VTi-oxide based catalysts showed the most promising and versatile, able to catalyse key reactions like oxidation of o-xylene to phtalic anhy ...
This paper focuses on the mechanism by which a monoterpene undergoes a cyclocarbonylation reaction catalysed by a palladium complex. Evidence is provided, based on intermediate species observed under pressure or with various ligands, that the catalytic cyc ...
A bimetallic complex, in which a RuCl2 (eta(2)C(2)H(4))(PCy3) fragment is connected via three chloro, bridges to a (eta(6)-p-cymene)RuCl2 fragment, has been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. This complex was used to cat ...
Electrochem. promotion (EP) of gas-phase catalysis with O2--conducting solid electrolytes is addressed. The behavior of the ref. electrode, prepd. by deposition of a gold film, was found to be quasi-reversible, 12O2/O2- being the potential detg. redox coup ...
Reactions of X2 (X = Br, I), P4 and Ag(CH2Cl2)[Al(OR)4] [R = C(CF3)3] in suitable ratios to prep. naked polyphosphorus cations were carried out and led to products which suggested these elusive cations as intermediates. At temps. >-30 Deg to rt the initial ...
The bimetallic ruthenium complex [(1,3,5-C6H3i-Pr3)Ru(m-Cl)3RuCl(C2H4)(PCy3)] has been synthesized by reaction of [(1,3,5-C6H3i-Pr3)RuCl2)]2 with one equivalent of PCy3 in the presence of ethylene. It can be used as a catalyst precursor for the controlled ...
Arene hydrogenation by homogeneous catalysts is a highly controversial area of research, with many of the mononuclear complexes shown to catalyse the reaction, being found to be pre-catalysts to nanoparticles, on closer examination. The solvent properties ...
A few years ago the concept of homogeneous arene hydrogenation catalysis was called into question, since many catalysts originally assigned as homogeneous have subsequently been shown to be precursors to heterogeneous ( colloidal or nanoparticulate) cataly ...
The prepn. of mesoporous Cr/AlPO was carried out under hydrothermal conditions. The catalyst was characterized by low angle XRD, N-adsorption, diffuse reflectance UV-visible spectroscopy, ESR and thermal anal. The catalytic activity was tested for vapor ph ...
