Hydrogen storage and utilization are the technologies to achieve carbon-neutral energy systems with renewable energy sources. Among the various materials that have been investigated, complex hydrides are a material exhibiting high gravimetric hydrogen dens ...
Pincer ligated coordination complexes of base metals have shown remarkable catalytic activity for hydrogenation/dehydrogenation of CO2. The recently reported MeNCH2CH2(Pr-i(2))Co(I)PNP-pincer complex was shown to exhibit substantially higher catalytic ...
N-formylation of amines with CO2 and hydrosilane reducing agents proceeds via fast and complex chemical equilibria, which hinder easy analysis of the reaction pathways. In situ reaction monitoring and kinetic studies reveal that three proposed pathways, vi ...
In this thesis, quantum chemical methods have been applied to elucidate the thermodynamics and the kinetics of reactions involving reactive species in water. Due to their high reactivity in water, many transient species are difficult to study by experiment ...
The hydrolysis of lignocellulose is the first step in saccharide based bio-refining. The recovery of homogeneous acid catalysts imposes great challenges to the feasibility of conventional hydrolysis processes. Herein, we report a strategy to overcome these ...
Securing our energy future while minimizing the associated environmental impacts is a challenging endeavor and the fundamental aspect of sustainable development. The choice of energy resource and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, primarily carbon ...
The reactivity of a PNP cobalt(I) complex towards the nitrous oxide N-heterocyclic carbene adduct (NHC-N2O) was explored. Several products were isolated including the cobalt nitrosyl complex (HPNP)Co(NO) (1) and the NHC-derived imine NHC=NH (2). This study ...
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 ...
Chiral cyclopentadienyl (Cp-x) group 9 metal complexes have become versatile catalysts for a variety of efficient enantioselective C-H functionalizations. Atropchiral binaphthyl-derived Cp-x ligands having tuning options at the 3,3'-positions present a rob ...
Aqueous electrophilic reactions are broadly important in environmental chemistry, but the thermodynamic equilibrium constants, rate constants, and mechanisms describing these reactions are often difficult to determine by experiment. Here we report on our e ...
