Revisiting the Impact of Morphology and Oxidation State of Cu on CO2 Reduction Using Electrochemical Flow Cell

Michael Graetzel, Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Dan Ren, Jing Gao

Electroreduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) in a flow electrolyzer represents a promising carbon-neutral technology with efficient production of valuable chemicals. In this work, the catalytic performance of polycrystalline copper (Cu), Cu2O-derived copper (O ...

Taming the radical cation intermediate enabled one-step access to structurally diverse lignans

Jieping Zhu, Qiang Wang, Cédric Fung, Jia-Chen Xiang

Lignans, in spite of their structural diversity, are all biosynthetically derived from coniferyl alcohol. We report herein a divergent synthesis of lignans from biomass-derived monolignols in a short synthetic sequence. Blue LED irradiation of a dichlorome ...

Stability and Reactivity of a Polyoxymethylene Dimethyl Ether over Typical Catalysts for Diesel Emission Control

Oliver Kröcher, Davide Ferri

Polyoxymethylene dimethyl ethers (OME) produced from methanol are considered as potential substitutes of Diesel fuel. Emissions of formaldehyde and other components have been observed, particularly under cold-start conditions in engine test-bench experimen ...

Hydro-processing of biomass using novel metal-organic framework (MOF)/polymer composite catalysts

Vikram Vinayak Karve

Generating value, in the form of functional chemicals, from biomass is a critical need of today. It is expected that replacing petroleum with biomass as the source of many commodity and fine chemicals can lead the transition away from a fossil-fuel based e ...

Investigation on the Role of Pd, Pt, Rh in Methane Abatement for Heavy Duty Applications

Oliver Kröcher, Davide Ferri, Moyu Wang

Methane abatement remains a challenge in aftertreatment systems of natural gas engines, currently under discussion in combination with synthetic methane. In this study, Pt/Rh and Pd/Rh-based three-way catalysts are investigated under various transient cond ...

Poisoning of Mn-Ce/AC catalysts for low-temperature NH3-SCR of NO by K+ and its counter-ions (Cl- /NO3- /SO42- )

Oliver Kröcher, Davide Ferri, Rob Jeremiah G. Nuguid

Mn-Ce/AC catalysts for low-temperature NH3-SCR of NOx were deliberately loaded with various potassium salts (KCl, KNO3, and K2SO4) to investigate the influence of the counter-ions on the poisoning impact. Whereas K salts poisoning had only marginal impact ...

Apparent 6-endo-trig Carbofluorination of Alkenes Enabled by Palladium-Based Dyotropic Rearrangement

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Jing Gong

Alkene difunctionalization featuring an intramolecular carbometallation step has been developed into a powerful transformation in organic synthesis. The 5-exo-trig carbometallation is in general highly favored over the alternative 6-endo-trig cyclization. ...

Tandem effect of Ag@C@Cu catalysts enhances ethanol selectivity for electrochemical CO2 reduction in flow reactors

Andreas Züttel, Wen Luo, Liping Zhong, Thi Ha My Pham, Mo Li, Jie Zhang, Youngdon Ko, Cedric David Koolen

CO-selective metals (e.g., Ag) on Cu catalysts improve the selec-tivity of multi-carbon (C2+) products in electrochemical CO2 reduc-tion. However, the origin of the improvement remains unclear due to the convolution of tandem and interface effects. Here, A ...

Experimental and modeling-based analysis of reaction pathways on catalysts for natural gas engines under periodic lean/rich oscillations

Oliver Kröcher, Davide Ferri, Moyu Wang

Methane (CH4) has the prospective of becoming one of the major energy carriers for heavy-duty mobility, but its catalytic abatement remains a challenge. CH4 abatement reaction pathways were analyzed using targeted periodic lean/rich oscillations, which res ...

Structural characterisation of nanoalloys for (photo)catalytic applications with the Sapphire library

Kevin Rossi

A non-trivial interplay rules the relationship between the structure and the chemophysical properties of a nanoparticle. In this context, characterization experiments, molecular dynamics simulations and electronic structure calculations may allow the varia ...

Palladium-Catalyzed trans-Hydroalkoxylation: Counterintuitive Use of an Aryl Iodide Additive to Promote C-H Bond Formation

Jérôme Waser, Mikus Purins, Ashis Kumar Das, Luca Buzzetti

We report an enantioselective palladium-catalyzed trans-hydroalkoxylation of propargylic amines with a trifluoroacetaldehydederived tether to build chiral oxazolidines. Diastereoselective hydrogenation using a heterogeneous palladium catalyst then gave acc ...

Amine Functionalization in Porous Adsorbents for Carbon Capture and Conversion

Anita Justin

Metal-organic Frameworks (MOFs) are a class of crystalline porous materials with exceptionally high surface area, chemical tunability and stability. Due to alarming CO2 emission and global concern, research is focused on developing porous materials like MO ...
