Selective hydrogenation of 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol (MBY) to 2-methyl-3-butene-2-ol (MBE) over Pd supported on hypercrosslinked polystyrene was studied in polar (ethanol, isopropanol, water) and non-polar (cyclohexane, toluene, octane, hexane, heptane and m-x ...
The enthalpically favoured hydration of hydrophobic entities, termed hydrophobic hydration, impacts the phase behaviour of numerous amphiphiles in water. Here, we show experimental evidence that hydrophobic hydration is strongly determined by the mean ener ...
Although alcohols are well-known to be protein denaturants when present at high concentrations, their effect on proteins at low concentrations is much less well characterized. In this paper, we present a study of the effects of alcohols on protein stabilit ...
Gold and rhodium nanoparticles stabilized by a cationic polymer can be readily modified by anion exchange to afford nanoparticles that may be dispersed in a wide range of organic solvents and ionic liquids. The catalytic activity of the Rh nanoparticle dis ...
The ion pair of the stereolabile C3-symmetric, i+o proton complex [1⋅H]+ of diaza-macropentacycle 1 and the configurationally stable Δ-TRISPHAT ([Δ-3]−) anion exists in the form of two diastereomers, namely, [Δ-(1⋅H)][Δ-3] and [Λ-(1⋅H)][Δ-3], the ratio of ...
We have studied the retention indices of 127 volatile substances on a C-78-paraffin and on its seven nearly isochor and isomorphous polar derivatives over a temperature range of 90-210 A degrees C. The retention index of a substance on the C-78 paraffin ha ...
We present a thermally activated solvent bonding technique for the formation of embedded microstructures in polymer. It is based, on the temperature dependent solubility of polymer in a liquid that is not a solvent at room temperature. With thermal activat ...
FeCl2 catalyzes the oxidative C-C cross-coupling of tertiary amines with terminal alkynes into propargylamines using (t-BuO)2 as oxidant. The reaction can be applied to aromatic and aliphatic amines and alkynes without solvent. High chemoselectivity for am ...
A heterobimetallic Ru(II)-Rh(I) complex has been identified as a potent catalyst precursor for the Oppenauer-type oxidation of alcohols. With 0.1-0.5 mol% of this complex and K2CO3 as the co-catalyst, it is possible to oxidize secondary and primary alcohol ...
This thesis presents a comparative study of the ultrafast solvation dynamics of liquids in bulk conditions, and at the interfaces of metal-IV oxides (specifically TiO2 and ZrO2), using ultrafast spectroscopy techniques. In the first part of the thesis we r ...
