Anisotropic In-Plane strain engineering Ni(OH)2 to activate alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction

Kangning Zhao

Realizing a hydrogen economy strongly requires alkaline water electrolysis to achieve large-scale generation of H2, but lacks stable and efficient catalysts. The insufficient active sites in Ni(OH)2 impair the catalytic performance of alkaline HER. Herein, ...

Homogenous catalytic hydrogenation of bicarbonate with water soluble aryl phosphine ligands

Paul Joseph Dyson, Gabor Laurenczy, Katerina Stefania Sordakis

The chemical transformation of CO2 and bicarbonates into useful products becomes increasingly impor- tant as the atmospheric CO2 level has reached 400 ppm. Here a small library of sulfonated aryl mono- phosphines and aryl diphosphines was tested as stabili ...

Electrophilic alkynylation: the dark side of acetylene chemistry

Jérôme Waser, Jonathan Brand

In addition to the well-established nucleophilic alkynylation, the use of electrophilic alkynes can expand tremendously the scope of acetylene transfer reactions. The use of metal catalysis has recently led to a rebirth of this research area. Halogenoalkyn ...

The cytotoxic styryl lactone goniothalamin is an inhibitor of nucleocytoplasmic transport

Karl Gademann

An in vivo nuclear export assay (immunostaining of Rio2 in HeLa cells) demonstrated that (R)-goniothalamin is an inhibitor of nucleocytoplasmic transport above 500 nM, which was rationalized also by molecular modeling. The cytotoxic styryl lactone natural ...
