Favoring the unfavored: Selective electrochemical nitrogen fixation using a reticular chemistry approach
Electrochemical nitrogen-to-ammonia fixation is emerging as a sustainable strategy to tackle the hydrogen- and energy-intensive operations by Haber-Bosch process for ammonia production. However, current electrochemical nitrogen reduction reaction (NRR) progress is impeded by overwhelming competition from the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) across all traditional NRR catalysts and the requirem...

Effects of imidazoles and substituted pyridines and pure s-donors on the oxidation of cyclooctene with NaIO4 by 5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrinato-manganese(III) acetate, Mn(TPP)OAc, and 5,10,15,20-Tetramesitylporphyrinato-manganese(III) acetate, Mn(TMP)OAc, catalysts in CH2Cl2-H2O solvent are studied. Coordination of the nitrogen donors to the Mn...
متن کاملPreparation of Nitrogen-Doped Graphene By Solvothermal Process as Supporting Material for Fuel Cell Catalysts
Development of efficient electrocatalysts for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is one of the most important issues for optimizing the performance of fuel cells and metal-air batteries. The introduction of nitrogen into carbon nanostructures has created new pathways for the development of non-precious electrocatalysts in fuel cells. In this work, nitrogen-doped graphene (NG) was synthesized by a ...
متن کاملCatalytic transformation of dinitrogen into ammonia and hydrazine by iron-dinitrogen complexes bearing pincer ligand
Synthesis and reactivity of iron-dinitrogen complexes have been extensively studied, because the iron atom plays an important role in the industrial and biological nitrogen fixation. As a result, iron-catalyzed reduction of molecular dinitrogen into ammonia has recently been achieved. Here we show that an iron-dinitrogen complex bearing an anionic PNP-pincer ligand works as an effective catalys...
متن کاملEasy conversion of protein-rich enoki mushroom biomass to a nitrogen-doped carbon nanomaterial as a promising metal-free catalyst for oxygen reduction reaction.
The search for low-cost, highly active, and stable catalysts to replace the Pt-based catalysts for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) has recently become a topic of interest. Herein, we report a new strategy to design a nitrogen-doped carbon nanomaterial for use as a metal-free ORR catalyst based on facile pyrolysis of protein-rich enoki mushroom (Flammulina velutipes) biomass at 900 °C with carbo...
