Separable Brønsted acidic imidazolium salts for polysaccharide hydrolysis in water

Kedar Ashok Abhyankar

The current reliance on limited petrochemical resources and the resulting ecological outcomes have made the exploration of alternative chemical and energy feedstocks invaluable. As such, the development of sustainable processes with a less harmful total en ...

Tandem Pauson-Khand Reaction Using Carbon Dioxide as the C1-Source

Paul Joseph Dyson, Serhii Shyshkanov, Kedar Ashok Abhyankar

We describe the use of CO2 as a promising C1 source instead of CO in the tandem Pauson-Khand reaction. The reaction is achieved by combining the reduction of CO2 to CO using a metal organic framework (MOF) catalyst with homogeneous rhodium catalysts for th ...

Azide as a photolabile ligand in gold(I) therapeutics

Paul Joseph Dyson, Rosario Scopelliti, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Kedar Ashok Abhyankar

Gold-based compounds are gaining attention as potential alternatives to platinum-based chemotherapeutics due to their high antiproliferative activity and unique mechanisms of action. However, challenges remain in enhancing their selectivity and reducing si ...

Carboxyl‐functionalized Alkylimidazolium Salts for Thermomorphic Acid‐Catalyzed Polysaccharide Hydrolysis in Water

Paul Joseph Dyson, Rosemarie Janet Somerville, Kedar Ashok Abhyankar

We report the use of carboxyl‐functionalised alkylimidazolium salts as thermomorphic acid catalysts for the hydrolysis of cellulose and starch in water, free from organic solvents and auxiliary substances. The imidazolium salts are insoluble in water at ro ...
