چکیده
Selective ring opening (SRO) catalysts transform polycyclic molecules in low grade oil to produce cleaner burning diesel fuel. Mechanistic insight, structure-reactivity relationships, catalyst design, and future opportunities for pyrolysis refining from municipal solid waste are discussed.

Photosonochemical catalytic ring opening of α-epoxyketones
The combination of ultrasound and photochemical methods has been used for the catalytic ring opening of alpha-epoxyketones by 1-benzyl-2,4,6-triphenylpyridinium tetrafluoroborate (NBTPT) as photocatalyst in methanol. Sonication of these compounds in the presence of NBTPT did not result in the opening of epoxide ring, but the use of ultrasound increased the rate of photoreaction.
متن کاملCleaner Cars and Fuels
Advances in vehicle design and fuel quality mean cars can be made cleaner and more efficient. Lower emissions of carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulphur dioxide (SO2), particles (including the fine dust and soot PM10) and hydrocarbons (HCs) also known as volatile organic compounds (VOCs) will lead to better urban air quality and less summertime smog. Lower emissions of carbon dioxi...
متن کاملCatalytic living ring-opening metathesis polymerization.
In living ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP), a transition-metal-carbene complex polymerizes ring-strained olefins with very good control of the molecular weight of the resulting polymers. Because one molecule of the initiator is required for each polymer chain, however, this type of polymerization is expensive for widespread use. We have now designed a chain-transfer agent (CTA) cap...
