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 ...
To study the influence of aqueous solvent on the electronic energy levels of dissolved organic molecules, we conducted liquid microjet photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) measurements of the aqueous vertical ionization energies (VIEaq) of aniline (7.49 eV), v ...
Understanding the fundamental reactions accompanying the capture of carbon dioxide in amine solutions is critical for the design of high-performance solvents and requires an accurate modeling of the solute-solvent interaction. As a first step toward this g ...
The photophysics and excited-state dynamics of two dyads consisting of either a free-base or a zinc-tetraphenylporphyrin linked through a rigid bridge to a core-substituted naphthalenediimide (NDI) have been investigated by femtosecond-resolved spectroscop ...
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 ...
Understanding and manipulating fluids at the nanoscale is a matter of growing scientific and technological interest. Here we show that the viscous shear forces in nanoconfined water can be orders of magnitudes larger than in bulk water if the confining sur ...
Solvated radicals play an important role in many areas of chemistry, but to date, the nature of their interactions with polar solvent molecules lacks chemical interpretation. We present a computational quantum chemical analysis of the binding motives of bi ...
Rheological characteristics of linear copolymers of acrylamide (AM) and acryloyloxyethyltrimethyl ammonium chloride (Q9), differing in molar mass and chemical composition, have been studied in distilled water (DW) and industrial water (IW) obtained from a ...
The excited-state dynamics of covalently linked electron donor−acceptor systems consisting of N,N-dimethylaniline (DMA) as electron donor and either perylene (Pe) or cyanoperylene (CNPe) as acceptor has been investigated in a large variety of solvents, inc ...
We have developed a united atom (UA) nonpolarizable force field for 1-alkyl-3-methyl-imidazolium chloride ([Cnmim][Cl], n = 1, 2, 4, 6, 8), a potential solvent for the pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass. The charges were assigned by fitting the electr ...
