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 ...

Carbon neutrality has been proposed as a commitment by the international communities for the well-being of human. To achieve carbon neutrality, one practical approach is to synthesize fuels and chemicals through CO2 hydrogenation to replace fossil fuels. C ...

For the past two decades, linear free energy scaling relationships and volcano plots have seen frequent use as computational tools that aid in understanding and predicting the catalytic behavior of heterogeneous and electrocatalysts. Based on Sabatier's pr ...

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 ...

Utilizing earth-abundant metals to design economical and efficient electrocatalysts for cathodic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and anodic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is critical for acquiring clean hydrogen energy by the electrochemical overall wat ...

Renewable energy supply and energy storage in a closed materials cycle are the urgent global challenges of the 21st century. Carbon dioxide (CO2) hydrogenation over catalysts is a method to produce synthetic fuels from renewable energy in a CO2 neutral cyc ...

C-C and C-N bonds are some of the most common structures in molecules ranging from drugs to catalysts and to food additives. Many coupling reactions were developed to form these types of bonds with excellent selectivity and good performance. Still, the syn ...

a-Amino ketones and 1,2-amino alcohols are important structural motifs in organic chemistry, that can be observed in natural products, pharmaceutically and bioactive compounds. For these reasons, they constitute privileged targets for the development of ne ...

Mechanistic investigations into homogeneously catalyzed reactions are essential for the fur-ther development of synthetic methodologies. Insights in the overall reaction pathway and vital steps such as the rate-determining and selectivity-determining steps ...

The intermetallic compound PdGa has recently attracted considerable interest for combining high catalytic activity with high reaction selectivity in symmetric heterogeneous catalysis, in particular semi-hydrogenation of acetylene and methanol steam reformi ...

This work is addressed to the phenomenon of catalyst deactivation taking place during the repeated uses in the reaction of Suzuki-Miyaura (S-M) cross-coupling, which is widely applied in industry for C-C bond formation. Ligandless catalysts based on Pd(0) ...

Heterogeneous catalyst preparation has been performed for close to a century but has been rapidly evolving spurred by the evolution in synthetic techniques and growing needs in energy, chemicals and materials. An increasing number of catalyst synthesis str ...

Metal nanoparticles (NPs) are usually stabilized by a capping agent, a surfactant, or a support material, to maintain their integrity. However, these strategies can impact their intrinsic catalytic activity. Here, we demonstrate that the in-situ formation ...

Cross-coupling of two alkyl fragments is an efficient method to produce organic molecules rich in sp(3)-hybridized carbon centres, which are attractive candidate compounds in drug discovery. Enantioselective C(sp(3))-C(sp(3)) coupling is challenging, espec ...

Supported ruthenium was used in the liquid phase catalytic transfer hydrogenation of furfural. To improve the stability of Ru against leaching, phosphorous was introduced on a Ru/Al2O3 based catalyst upon impregnation with ammonium hypophosphite followed b ...
