Unveiling the Roles of Pt and CeO2 during Solvent-Free Amide Hydrogenation Utilizing Operando Photoelectron Photoionization Coincidence Spectroscopy

Paul Joseph Dyson, Xinbang Wu, Roland Christopher Turnell-Ritson, Jan Romano de Gea, Rosemarie Janet Somerville

The hydrogenation of amides to amines is an important reaction in the synthesis of building blocks in organic chemistry. However, the solvent-free hydrogenation of amides (requiring heterogeneous catalysts and high reaction temperatures) is challenging, wi ...

Anion Exchange Membrane Water Electrolysis at 10 A ⋅ cm−2 Over 800 Hours

Andrit Allushi, Xile Hu, Wenchao Ma, Ariana Serban, Yiwei Zheng

Anion exchange membrane water electrolyzer (AEMWE) is a potentially cost-effective technology for green hydrogen production. Although the normal current densities of AEMWEs are below 3 A ⋅ cm−2, operating them at higher current densities represents an effi ...

Low-temperature thermite reaction to form oxygen vacancies in metal-oxide semiconductors: A case study of photoelectrochemical cells

Michael Graetzel, Kevin Sivula, Likai Zheng

The formation of oxygen vacancies (Vö) in n-type semiconductors is a key strategy for improving the performance of metal-oxide-based photoanodes. Whereas Vö has traditionally been created by gas- or liquid-phase treatments, here we report a solid-state red ...

Fully Conjugated Benzyne-Derived Three-Dimensional Porous Organic Polymers

Claudia Esther Avalos

Porous organic polymers (POPs) have gained tremendous attention owing to their chemical tunability, stability and high surface areas. Whereas there are several examples of fully conjugated two-dimensional (2D) POPs, three-dimensional (3D) ones are rather c ...

Investigating Tetrel-Based Neutral Frustrated Lewis Pairs for Hydrogen Activation

Shubhajit Das

Tetrel Lewis acids are a prospective alternative to commonly employed neutral boranes in frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) chemistry. While cationic tetrylium Lewis acids, being isolobal and iso(valence)electronic, are a natural replacement to boranes, neutral t ...

Colloquium: Spintronics in graphene and other two-dimensional materials

Ahmet Avsar

After the first unequivocal demonstration of spin transport in graphene [Tombros et al., Nature (London) 448, 571-574 (2007)], surprisingly at room temperature, it was quickly realized that this novel material was relevant for both fundamental spintronics ...
