Sustainable Hydrogenation of Nitroarenes to Anilines with Highly Active in-situ Generated Copper Nanoparticles

Berend Smit, Mounir Driss Mensi, Kyriakos Stylianou, Ngoc Tú Nguyên, Christopher Patrick Ireland, Fatma Pelin Uran

Metal nanoparticles (NPs) are usually stabilized by a capping agent, a surfactant, or a support material, to maintain their integrity. However, these strategies can impact their intrinsic catalytic activity. Here, we demonstrate that the in-situ formation ...

A recyclable metal-organic framework for ammonia vapour adsorption

Kyriakos Stylianou, Ngoc Tú Nguyên

Herein, we present a new strategy to design metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as adsorbents for ammonia (NH3) vapour. The linking ligand is functionalized with a sterically hindered Lewis acidic boron (B) centre, allowing efficient capture of NH3 and easy re ...

Design of lanthanide-based metal-organic frameworks with enhanced near-infrared emission

Kyriakos Stylianou, Ngoc Tú Nguyên, Andrzej Gladysiak

A strategy based on the use of ligand steric hindrance and metal doping is reported for the design and synthesis of near-infrared (NIR) emitting lanthanide-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). The lanthanide ions are free of coordinated solvents, and the ...

Frustrated Lewis pair-mediated fixation of CO2 within a metal-organic framework

Paul Joseph Dyson, Serhii Shyshkanov, Kyriakos Stylianou, Ngoc Tú Nguyên, Arunraj Chidambaram

Finding pragmatic solutions to curb the accumulation of atmospheric CO2 and tackle the associated greenhouse effect is challenging. Herein, we demonstrate the use of an in situ formed frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) within a metal-organic framework (MOF) to ef ...
