Electro- and photochemical H-2 generation by Co(ii) polypyridyl-based catalysts bearing ortho-substituted pyridines
Rosario Scopelliti, Euro Solari, Albert Ruggi, Vincent Artero, Fiorella Lucarini
Cobalt(II) complexes featuring hexadentate amino-pyridyl ligands have been recently discovered as highly active catalysts for the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (HER), whose high performance arises from the possibility of assisting proton transfer processes v ...
ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRY2023Engineering of chitosan-based derivatives for non-viral gene delivery
Gene therapy offers the possibility to treat or even cure diseases originating from genetic defects by introducing a therapeutic gene in target cells or correcting the initial defective gene. Amongst different options, non-viral vectors rely on the deliver ...
EPFL2022Direct Photoexcitation of Ethynylbenziodoxolones: An Alternative to Photocatalysis for Alkynylation Reactions**
Jérôme Waser, Diana Cavalli, Franck Le Vaillant, Stephanie Grace Elizabeth Amos
Ethynylbenziodoxolones (EBXs) are commonly used as radical traps in photocatalytic alkynylations. Herein, we report that aryl-substituted EBX reagents can be directly activated by visible light irradiation. They act as both oxidants and radical traps, alle ...
WILEY-V C H VERLAG GMBH2021Buffered Coordination Modulation as a Means of Controlling Crystal Morphology and Molecular Diffusion in an Anisotropic Metal-Organic Framework
Significant advances have been made in the synthesis of chemically selective environments within metal-organic frameworks, yet materials development and industrial implementation have been hindered by the inability to predictively control crystallite size ...
AMER CHEMICAL SOC2021Synthetic methodologies for C-C and C-N bond formation involving alkyl radicals
C-C and C-N bonds are some of the most common structures in molecules ranging from drugs to catalysts and to food additives. Many coupling reactions were developed to form these types of bonds with excellent selectivity and good performance. Still, the syn ...
EPFL2020Metal Soap Membranes for Gas Separation
Kumar Varoon Agrawal, Davide Campi, Jian Hao, Deepu Joseph Babu, Qi Liu
Metal soaps or metal alkanoates are metal-organic complexes held together with metal cations and the functional groups of hydrocarbon chains. They can be synthesized at a high yield by simply mixing the metal and organic sources, forming crystalline framew ...
WILEY-V C H VERLAG GMBH2020Shape and size control of colloidal CdSe nanocrystals in the presence of carboxylate and alkylamine ligands
In this thesis, we focus on investigating the shape and size evolution of colloidal CdSe nanomaterials in the presence of carboxylate and alkylamine surface ligands. By elaborating the combination of carboxylates and alkylamines with different hydrocarbon ...
EPFL2019Reversible Dihydrogen Activation and Hydride Transfer by a Uranium Nitride Complex
Marinella Mazzanti, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Marta Falcone, Lok Nga Poon
Abstract: Cleavage of dihydrogen is an important step in the industrial and enzymatic transformation of N2 into ammonia. The reversible cleavage of dihydrogen was achieved under mild conditions (room temperature and 1 atmosphere of H2) by the molecular ura ...
2018Intricacies of Cation-Anion Combinations in Imidazolium Salt-Catalyzed Cycloaddition of CO2 Into Epoxides
Paul Joseph Dyson, Gabor Laurenczy, Felix Daniel Bobbink, Florent Menoud, Martin Hulla, Dmitry Vasilyev, Sami Manoubi Armand Chamam
The cycloaddition of CO2 into epoxides catalyzed by imidazolium and related salts continues to attract attention due to the industrial importance of the cyclic carbonate products. The mechanism of the imidazolium-catalyzed transformation has been proposed ...
2018On-Surface Assembly and Reactions of Organic Molecules in Ultra-High Vacuum
This thesis comprises the study of two types of 2D materials, those stabilized by non-covalent and those by covalent interactions. They are synthesized and studied on well-defined metallic surfaces in ultra-high vacuum (UHV). The self-assembly of terephtha ...
