Inorganic and Metal-Organic Heterogeneous Catalysts for Hydrogen Energy Applications

The main focus of this thesis is the exploration of inorganic and metal-organic heterogeneous catalysts for hydrogen (H2) energy applications. In particular, we investigated metal nanoparticles (NPs) and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for their employment ...

Using collective knowledge to assign oxidation states of metal cations in metal-organic frameworks

Seyedmohamad Moosavi, Berend Smit, Daniele Ongari, Kevin Maik Jablonka

Knowledge of the oxidation state of metal centres in compounds and materials helps in the understanding of their chemical bonding and properties. Chemists have developed theories to predict oxidation states based on electron-counting rules, but these can f ...

Design, synthesis, reactivity, and magnetic properties of uranium based oxide and nitride complexes

Luciano Barluzzi

The activation of small molecules is a paramount challenge in modern chemistry. The use of cheap and abundant molecules such as N2, H2, CO2, or CO as energy supplies or as precursors for fine chemicals production is highly desirable. In particular, the onl ...

Structure-Property Relationships of Microphase-Separated Metallosupramolecular Polymers

Emad Oveisi, Stephen Schrettl

The structural, thermomechanical, and viscoelastic properties of metallosupramolecular polymers (MSPs) can be controlled through the choice of the multiligand monomer and the nature of the metal salt from which these materials are assembled. This versatili ...

Fused N‐Heterocycles with Contiguous Stereogenic Centers Accessed by an Asymmetric Catalytic Cascade Reaction of Tertiary Enamides

Jieping Zhu, Shuo Tong

We report in this article a cascade reaction strategy for the synthesis of complex N-heterocyclic compounds with contiguous and tetrasubstituted stereogenic carbons. Under the sequential catalysis of a chiral binol–Ti complex and BF3, cyclopentanone-derive ...

Picometer Resolution Structure of the Coordination Sphere in the Metal-Binding Site in a Metalloprotein by NMR

David Lyndon Emsley, Andrea Bertarello

Most of our understanding of chemistry derives from atomic-level structures obtained with single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Metal centers in X-ray structures of small organometallic or coordination complexes are often extremely well-defined, with errors in ...

Trisubstituted geminal diazaalkene derived transient 1,2-carbodications

Shubhajit Das

The coulombic repulsion between two adjacent cation centres of 1,2-carbodications is known to decrease with pi- and/or n-donor substituents by a positive charge delocalization. Here we report the delocalization of the positive charge of transient 1,2-carbo ...
