Cycloalkane Oxidation Catalyzed by Copper-based Catalysts with H2O2 under Mild Conditions

Copper-catalyzed cycloalkane oxidation using H2O2 as an oxidant was investigated under mild conditions. The copper catalysts studied in this work ranged from commercially-available copper(II) salts to copper(II) complexes containing polypyridyl ligands. Va ...

Schiff base ligands derived from 1,2-bis(2 '-nitro-/amino-phenoxy)-3-R-benzene and 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde and their Cu/Zn(II) complexes: synthesis, characterization, X-ray structures and computational studies

Rosario Scopelliti

1,2-Bis(2'-nitrophenoxy)-3-R-benzenes {R = H (1), CH3 (2) and OCH3 (3)} have been prepared from the S-N-Ar reaction between 1-fluoro-2-nitrobenzene and 3-R-catechol (aromatic diol), and are then reduced to the corresponding diamines 1,2-bis(2'-aminophenoxy ...

Coordination-Driven Monolayer-to-Bilayer Transition in Two-Dimensional Metal–Organic Networks

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg, Mina Moradi, Patrick Shahgaldian

We report on monolayer-to-bilayer transitions in 2D metal–organic networks (MONs) from amphiphiles supported at the water–air interface. Functionalized calix[4]arenes are assembled through the coordination of selected transition metal ions to yield monomol ...

Controllable CO adsorption determines ethylene and methane productions from CO2 electroreduction

Yang Li, Jun Li, Zhiwen Zhou, Hao Yang, Bo Zhang

Among all CO2 electroreduction products, methane (CH4) and ethylene (C2H4) are two typical and valuable hydrocarbon products which are formed in two different pathways: hydrogenation and dimerization reactions of the same CO intermediate. Theoretical studi ...

Fine-tuning the coordination atoms of copper redox mediators: an effective strategy for boosting the photovoltage of dye-sensitized solar cells

Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Chong Liu, Mei Wang

Natural systems have marvelously utilized copper complexes featuring sulfur-coordinating ligands, known as blue copper proteins, as efficient electron-transfer mediators in biological processes. Copper complexes with sulfur-coordinating ligands have been a ...

Effect of Coordination Sphere Geometry of Copper Redox Mediators on Regeneration and Recombination Behavior in Dye-Sensitized Solar Cell Applications

Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Yasemin Saygili, Jacques-Edouard Moser, Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Joël Teuscher, Fabrizio Giordano, Marina Freitag, Marko Stojanovic, Jan Tiepelt

The recombination of injected electrons with oxidized redox species and regeneration behavior of copper redox mediators are investigated for four copper complexes, [Cu(dmby)2]2+/1+ (dmby = 6,6′-dimethyl-2,2′- bipyridine), [Cu(tmby)2]2+/1+ (tmby = 4,4′,6,6′ ...

A genetic algorithm based design and experimental characterization of a highly thermostable metalloprotein

Ursula Röthlisberger, Rudolf Hovius, Esra Bozkurt, Marta Andreia Da Silva Perez, Nicholas John Browning

The development of thermostable and solvent-tolerant metalloproteins is a long-sought goal for many applica- tions in synthetic biology and biotechnology. In this work, we were able to engineer a highly thermo- and organic solvent- stable metallo variant o ...

Resonant elastic x-ray scattering from the skyrmion lattice in Cu2OSeO3

Helmuth Berger

We report the study of the skyrmion state near the surface of Cu2OSeO3 using soft resonant elastic x-ray scattering (REXS) at the Cu L-3 edge. Within the lateral sampling area of 200 x 200 mu m(2), we found a long-range-ordered skyrmion lattice phase as we ...

Critical Factors Driving the High Volumetric Uptake of Methane in Cu-3(btc)(2)

Berend Smit

A thorough experimental and computational study has been carried out to elucidate the mechanistic reasons for the high volumetric uptake of methane in the metal-organic framework Cu-3(btc)(2) (btc(3-) = 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate; HKUST-1). Methane adsorp ...
