The perovskite-type oxide catalyst LaFe1-xCuxO3 (x=0, 0.1, 0.2) was prepared by the sol–gel method, and tested as a catalyst in the wet aerobic oxidation (WAO) of lignin into aromatic aldehydes. The lignin conversion and the yield of each aromatic aldehyde were significantly enhanced in the catalytic process, compared with the non-catalyzed process. Moreover, it was shown that the stability of ...

A facile and robust approach is provided for the synthesis of highly dispersed copper nanoparticles immobilized onto graphene nanosheets, useful as a recyclable and reusable heterogeneous catalyst with excellent catalytic activity to achieve Cu(I)-catalyzed [3+2] cycloaddition 'click' chemistry.

Silica-bonded N-propyldiethylenetriamine sulfamic acid (SPDTSA) is employed as a recyclable heterogeneous solid acid catalyst for the synthesis of benzopyrano[2,3-d]pyrimidines  through one-pot condensation reaction of salicylaldehydes, malononitrile and secondary amines  at room temperature under solvent-free conditions. SPDTSA showed much the same efficiency when used in con...

Rh(III)-TsDPEN, an immobilized analog of the well-known [Cp*Rh(bpy)(H(2)O)](2+) was evaluated as a heterogeneous, recyclable regeneration catalyst for reduced oxidoreductase cofactors [NAD(P)H]. Repeated use of this catalyst was established and the catalytic properties were initially investigated. Apparently, Rh(III)-TsDPEN is prone to severe diffusion limitations, necessitating further develop...

We describe a unique amorphous cobalt metal–organic framework derived material that acts both as recyclable heterogeneous catalyst for organic transformations and trifunctional electrocatalyst.

A Ni-based ternary nanocomposite, Ni–rGO–zeolite, has been developed as an efficient and recyclable heterogeneous catalyst for on-water regioselective azide alkyne cycloaddition.

The Fe( iii )-based MOF acted as a highly efficient and recyclable heterogeneous catalyst for hydrogenperoxide decomposition with simple retrieval from the reaction mixture.

A highly efficient and recyclable Ir catalyst bearing a 4,7-dihydroxy-1,10-phenanthroline ligand was developed for the evolution of high-pressure H2 gas (>100 MPa), and a large amount of atmospheric pressure H2 gas (>120 L), over a long term (3.5 months). The reaction proceeds through the dehydrogenation of highly concentrated aqueous formic acid (FA, 40 vol %, 10 mol L-1 ) at 80 °C using 1 μmo...

The first immobilization of a pyrene-tagged chromium salen complex through π-π noncovalent interactions on reduced graphene oxide (rGO) is described. A very robust supported catalytic system obtained to promote asymmetric catalysis in repeated cycles, without loss activity or enantioselectivity. This specific behavior was demonstrated two different reactions (up ten reuses) promoted by complexe...

Mesoporous silica molecular sieves are a kind of unique catalyst support due to their large pore size and high surface area. Several methods have been developed to immobilize heteropolyacids (HPAs) inside the channels of these mesoporous silicas. The mesoporous silica-supported HPA materials have been widely used as recyclable catalysts in heterogeneous systems. They have shown high catalytic a...
