fischer-tropsch synthesis is a promising route for production of light olefins via co hydrogenation over transition metals. co is one of the most active metals for fischer-tropsch synthesis. some different variables such as preparation parameters and operational factors can strongly affect the selectivity of fischer-tropsch synthesis toward the special products. in the case of preparation varia...

A practical protocol was developed that allows performing decarboxylative cross-coupling reactions in continuous flow reactors. Various biaryls were thus synthesized from aromatic carboxylic acids and aryl triflates using a Cu/Pd-catalyst system.

Steam reforming of methanol (SRM) was investigated over Cu/ZrO2/CeO2 (CZC) catalysts prepared via a novel synthetic method based on coprecipitation and polymer templating. Structural characterization of the samples was performed by N2 adsorption-desorption, N2O decomposition, and X-ray diffraction. The variation of the Cu loading resulted in an increased Cu crystallite size and a decreased spec...

[Structure: see text] A novel procedure for catalyst recycling is described. Copper(I)-based catalysts, equipped with an affinity tag, are isolated from crude reaction mixtures on the basis of quadruple hydrogen-bonding interactions using a resin functionalized with complementary affinity tags. Recycled catalysts were successfully used to catalyze a tandem Sonogashira coupling/5-endo-dig cycliz...

A high-throughput screening (HTS) method based on fluorescence imaging (FI) was implemented to evaluate the catalytic performance of selenide-modified nano-TiO2. Chemical ink-jet printing (IJP) technology was reformed to fabricate a catalyst library comprising 1405 (Ni(a)Cu(b)Cd(c)Ce(d)In(e)Y(f))Se(x)/TiO2 (M6Se/Ti) composite photocatalysts. Nineteen M6Se/Tis were screened out from the 1405 can...

We report a Cu-catalyzed coupling between triarylaluminum reagents and alkyl halides to form arylalkanes. The reaction proceeds in the presence of N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-o-phenylenediamine (NN-1) as a ligand in combination with CuI as a catalyst. This catalyst system enables the coupling of primary alkyl iodides and bromides with electron-neutral and electron-rich triarylaluminum reagents and af...

The catalytic reduction of sulfur dioxide with methane to form elemental sulfur has been studied. Al2O3, Cu-Al2O3 and Ni-Al2O3 were examined as catalysts and their performances were compared in terms of SO2 conversion and selectivity. Performance of the catalyst extremely enhanced when nickel and copper were added as promoters. The effects of temperature, SO2/CH4 molar ratio, and reaction...

In this report, the synthesis, characterization, and application of the eggshell-supported-Cu(II) salophen complex, as a novel and heterogeneous catalyst, is described. The catalyst is characterized by the UV, XRD, FT-IR, and SEM techniques. The eggshell-supported-Cu(II) salophen complex is a versatile, green, inexpensive, and simple catalyst used for the multi-component reactions (MCRs) of ter...

The transition-metal-catalyzed rearrangement of 5-alkynals to gamma-alkynylketones and 1-cyclopentenylketones was developed using [Rh(P(OPh)3)2]BF4 or Cu(OTf)2 as a catalyst.
