Solvent- and catalyst-free reduction of CO2 with ammonia borane

Andreas Züttel, Youngdon Ko, Liping Zhong

Ammonia borane (AB) has been extensively studied as a solid-state hydrogen storage material. On the other hand, its reactivity with CO2 is still unclear, especially in the solid state. By carefully controlling the CO2 pressure and temperature, AB efficient ...

CO2 Capture and Release in Amine Solutions: To What Extent Can Molecular Simulations Help Understand the Trends?

Wanda Andreoni, Fabio Pietrucci, Changru Ma

Absorption in amine solutions is a well-established advanced technology for CO2 capture. However, the fundamental aspects of the chemical reactions occurring in solution still appear to be unclear. Our previous investigation of aqueous monoethanolamine (ME ...

The Photoisomerization Pathway(s) of Push‐Pull Phenylazoheteroarenes

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Sergio Vela Llausi

Azoheteroarenes are the most recent derivatives targeted to further improve the properties of azo‐based photoswitches. Their light‐induced mechanism for trans‐cis isomerization is assumed to be very similar to that of the parent azobenzene. As such, they i ...

Methanol production from CO(2)via an integrated, formamide-assisted approach

Paul Joseph Dyson, Andreas Züttel, Loris Giovanni Lombardo, Jorge Gustavo Uranga, Aswin Gopakumar, Gabriela Gastelu, Tim Pfister, Gunay Imanzade

The synthesis of fuels from CO2 has made tremendous progress in recent years, although practical applications remain limited. Herein, we describe a cyclic process that produces MeOH from CO(2)via formamide intermediates, which are initially reduced using N ...

Synthetic Studies toward Amanita Phalloides Toxins

Philipp Georg Werner Seeberger

Amatoxins are ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified bicyclic octapeptides biosynthesized by the deadly basidiomycete fungus Amanita phalloides. Amongst this group, alpha-amanitin is the most widely known toxin and is currently under inv ...

Mechanistic Studies of Two Ni-Catalyzed Reactions: Reductive Amidation of Esters with Nitroarenes and Hydrosilylation of Alkenes

Marten Leendert Ploeger

Mechanistic investigations into homogeneously catalyzed reactions are essential for the fur-ther development of synthetic methodologies. Insights in the overall reaction pathway and vital steps such as the rate-determining and selectivity-determining steps ...

New insights into the effect of nitrogen incorporation in Mo: catalytic hydrogenation vs. hydrogenolysis

Lioubov Kiwi, Fernando Cardenas Lizana, Daniel André Samuel Lamey

The catalytic effect of nitrogen incorporation into Mo on hydrogenation (of -NO2 to -NH2 in nitrobenzene to aniline) and hydrogenolysis (of -C?O in benzaldehyde to toluene) processes has been assessed. Bulk Mo was prepared by temperature programmed reducti ...

The dilemma between acid and base catalysis in the synthesis of benzimidazole from o-phenylenediamine and carbon dioxide

Paul Joseph Dyson, Martin Hulla, Simon Nussbaum, Alexy Robert Bonnin

The tandem synthesis of benzimidazole and other azoles can be achived by the N-formylation of ortho-substituted anilines followed by a cyclization reaction. However, CO2-based N-formylations with hydrosilane reducing agents are base catalyzed whereas the c ...

Molecular engineering of enamine-based small organic compounds as hole-transporting materials for perovskite solar cells

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Michael Saliba, Sanghyun Paek, Kyung Taek Cho

The search for new classes of hole transporting materials (HTMs) is a very important task on the way towards commercialization of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). In this work, the synthesis and performance in PSCs of new enamine-based HTMs are presented. Th ...

Orientation, rotation and solvation of ions in helium nanodroplets

Verónica Oliver Álvarez de Lara

Helium nanodroplets are liquid, finite size, nanoscale helium clusters that have been employed since the 1990s as a matrix for high-resolution spectroscopy of molecules. Spectroscopic studies of ionic species inside helium droplets were not however realise ...
