bis-(l-tyrosinato)copper(ii) was reacted with 3-(chloropropyl)-trimethoxysilane functionalized silica that has infused magnetite to yield a magnetically separable catalyst in which the copper carboxylate is covalently linked to the silica matrix through the silane linkage. the immobilized catalyst has been characterized by spectroscopic studies (such as ft-ir, epr, magnetic measurement, sem) an...

In this study, a graphene-vanadium carbonitride (G-V(C, N)) hybrid is reported as a novel support for the Pt catalyst in methanol oxidation. The catalytic activity of the Pt/G-V(C, N) hybrid for methanol oxidation is greatly enhanced compared with that of a commercial Pt/C catalyst with carbon black as the catalyst support. The outstanding catalytic activity of the Pt/G-V(C, N) catalyst suggest...

Flower-like MgO is a highly effective catalyst for the synthesis of dimethyl carbonate through the transesterification method, and coating the catalyst with mesoporous silica significantly enhances the stability of the MgO catalyst.

An air-stable catalyst system Ir-(P-Phos) catalyst was found to be highly effective in the asymmetric hydrogenation of quinoline derivatives. The catalyst immobilized in DMPEG was efficiently recovered and reused eight times, retaining reactivity and enantioselectivity.

monometallic and bimetallic ni and co catalytic nanoparticles supported on titanium dioxide (rutile phase) substrate were prepared by wet impregnation method. these nanoparicles were used as catalysts for synthesis of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (mwcnts) from acetylene decomposition at 700°c by the catalytic chemical vapor deposition (ccvd) technique. the nanomaterials (catalyst and cnts) were...

The simultaneous esterification and transesterification of Jatropha curcas oil (JCO) was carried out in the presence of Bi2O3 (1–7 wt.%) modified La2O3 catalyst at atmospheric pressure. The catalyst were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), BET surface area, desorption of CO2 (TPD-CO2) and NH3 (TPD-NH3). Under the optimal reaction condition of methanol/oil molar ratio of 15:1, 2 wt.% of ca...

This work presents model-based strategies for on-board catalyst monitoring and fault detection using a simplified catalyst oxygen storage and reversible deactivation model. The performance of the catalyst is inferred from the error between the post-catalyst exhaust gas oxygen sensor measurement and the model predicted value. Each of these strategies is based on the use of some test statistic th...

Based on starch and series of alkyl benzene sulfonic acid as the materials, a novel carbon-based solid acid catalyst is synthesized using hydrothermal method. This catalyst exhibits much higher catalytic activity in the reaction of esterification of Mono-fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene maleate esters with 1,4-butanediol. The structure of carbon-based solid acid catalyst was charactered by IR and ...

A novel di-iron(III) catalyst for the copolymerisation of cyclohexene oxide and CO(2) to yield poly(cyclohexene carbonate), under mild conditions, is reported. The catalyst selectivity was completely changed on addition of an ammonium co-catalyst to yield only the cis-isomer of the cyclic carbonate, also under mild conditions. Additionally, the catalyst was active for propylene carbonate and st...

Incompatible Grubbs catalyst and an osmium dihydroxylation catalyst were site-isolated from each other using polydimethylsiloxane thimbles. The Grubbs catalyst was added to the interior of the thimbles, and AD-mix-alpha/beta was added to the exterior. Organic substrates readily fluxed through the walls of the thimbles and reacted with each catalyst. A series of cascade reactions were developed ...
