Ultrasound promoted catalytic liquid-phase dehydrogenation of isopropanol for Isopropanol–Acetone–Hydrogen chemical heat pump

Synthesis of 1-(isopentyloxy)-4-nitrobenzene under ultrasound assisted liquid-liquid phase-transfer catalysis

In this paper, we report the reaction of isoamyl alcohol and 1-chloro-4-nitrobenzene was carried out in a batch reactor under aqueous-organic biphasic conditions using the techniques like phase transfer catalysis and ultrasound irradiation. Tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) was employed as the phase transfer catalyst. The reaction is greatly enhanced by adding a small quantity of phase-transfer...

Carbon supports for the catalytic dehydrogenation of liquid organic hydrides as hydrogen storage and delivery system

Dehydrogenation of Benzene on Liquid

The reactions of benzene on Al100 + have been investigated as a function of cluster temperature (300−1100 K) and relative kinetic energy (1−14 eV) by low-energy ion-beam methods and mass spectrometry. Benzene chemisorbs on both solid and liquid aluminum clusters to generate Al100C6D6 . A series of Al100−n + (n = 1, 2, 3, ...) products was also observed. As the cluster temperature was raised abo...

Ag/ZnO Nanocomposites: Preparation, Characterization and Investigation of the Catalytic Activity for Oxidation of Toluene in Liquid Phase

In this research, Ag/ZnO nanocomposites were prepared and characterized by transition electron microscopy (TEM), the energy dispersive X-ray spectrum (EDS) and X-ray diffraction patterns (XRD). These nanocomposites were used as catalysts for the oxidation of toluene to benzaldehyde and benzoic acid with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and tert-butylhydroperoxide (TBHP) as oxidizing agent in the liquid...

Catalytic modification in dehydrogenation properties of KSiH3.

A number of known catalysts, which have been proven to be very effective for several hydrogen species, were studied in order to determine their effects on the hydrogen ab/desorption properties of KSiH3. Among all the catalysts used in this work, mesoporous Nb2O5 is found to be quite effective, with a reduction in activation energy from 142 kJ mol(-1) for pristine KSi to 63 kJ mol(-1) for mesopo...
