Electrochemical Reduction of CO2 Catalyzed by Metal Oxides

Yeonji Oh

A rapidly growing population and industrialization have caused the exploitation of natural resources in keeping with fossil fuels shortage. Due to the combustion of fossil fuels, the concentration of CO2 in the earth's atmosphere, which is a potent greenho ...

Formic Acid Dehydrogenation Catalysed by Tris(TPPTS) Ruthenium Species: Mechanism of the Initial "Fast" Cycle

Gabor Laurenczy, Andrew Francis Dalebrook

Water-soluble ruthenium m-triphenylphosphinetrisulfonate (TPPTS) complexes are excellent catalysts for formic acid dehydrogenation. Interestingly, the choice of metal catalyst precursor has a direct influence on initial activities. The reaction with hexaaq ...

Direct synthesis of formic acid from carbon dioxide by hydrogenation in acidic media

Paul Joseph Dyson, Gabor Laurenczy, Séverine Joëlle Moret

The chemical transformation of carbon dioxide into useful products becomes increasingly important as CO2 levels in the atmosphere continue to rise as a consequence of human activities. In this article we describe the direct hydrogenation of CO2 into formic ...

Heterogeneous Silica-Supported Ruthenium Phosphine Catalysts for Selective Formic Acid Decomposition

Paul Joseph Dyson, Gabor Laurenczy, Weijia Gan

The water-soluble ruthenium(II)–mTPPTS complex (mTPPTS= meta-trisulfonated triphenylphosphine) efficiently catalyzes the generation of hydrogen from formic acid in aqueous solution. This catalyst has been immobilized in a hydrophilic silica sup- port to fa ...

Direct, in situ determination of pH and solute concentrations in formic acid dehydrogenation and CO2 hydrogenation in pressurised aqueous solutions using 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy

Paul Joseph Dyson, Gabor Laurenczy, Séverine Joëlle Moret

In water, spin–lattice relaxation times (T1) and calibration curves for chemical shifts have been determined for the 13C and the 1H (C) atoms in HCOOH, HCOONa, CO2, Na2CO3 and NaHCO3 by NMR spectroscopy. These data facilitate kinetic and mechanistic studie ...

Ruthenium(II)-Catalyzed Hydrogen Generation from Formic Acid using Cationic, Ammoniomethyl-Substituted Triarylphosphine Ligands

Paul Joseph Dyson, Gabor Laurenczy, Weijia Gan, Dennis Snelders

The selective catalytic decomposition of formic acid into hydrogen and carbon dioxide has been achieved in water under mild conditions. For the first time, a ruthenium ion in combination with series of oligocationic, ammoniomethyl-substituted triarylphosph ...
