2,5-Dimethylfuran is deoxygenated to n-hexane with 100% yield on a bifunctional Pt/C–Cs2.5H0.5PW12O40 catalyst under very mild conditions (90 °C, 1 bar H2) in one-step gas-phase process.

Exploration of new superconductors has always been one the research directions in condensed matter physics. We report here a layered heterostructure [(Fe,Al)(OH)2][FeSe]1.2, which is synthesized by hydrothermal ion-exchange technique. The structure suggested combination X-ray powder diffraction and electron (ED). [(Fe,Al)(OH)2][FeSe]1.2 composed alternating stacking tetragonal FeSe layer hexago...

[VNb12O40]15− polytopic ligand can coordinate to up five {(C6H6)Ru}2+ groups. Combined analytical separation tools together with 1H DOSY NMR were firstly applied the solution studies of polyoxoniobate based complexes.
