Decatungstate W(10)O(32)(4-) heterogenized on a novel hydrophobically-organomodified SBA-15 was proven an efficient, green and reusable catalyst for photooxygenation by oxygen of a range of aryl alkanes to the corresponding ketones under mild conditions.

CuCl has been successfully immobilized on a novel diamide modified SBA-15, and proven to be an efficient heterogenized catalyst for the oxidative carbonylation of methanol to dimethylcarbonate.

Using click chemistry for linkage, a ruthenium-based metathesis catalyst was efficiently immobilized on nanoporous silica. The heterogenized catalyst exhibited good activity and recyclability for various substrates. An interesting application was demonstrated for a continuous process using a circulating flow reactor.

Molecular catalysts are known for their high activity and tunability, but their solubility and limited stability often restrict their use in practical applications. Here we describe how a molecular iridium catalyst for water oxidation directly and robustly binds to oxide surfaces without the need for any external stimulus or additional linking groups. On conductive electrode surfaces, this hete...

8 ABSTRACT: A pentamethylcyclopentadienyl (Cp*) iridium water9 oxidation precatalyst was modified to include a silatrane functional group 10 for covalent attachment to metal oxide semiconductor surfaces. The 11 heterogenized catalyst was found to perform electrochemically driven 12 water oxidation at an overpotential of 462 mV with a turnover number of 13 304 and turnover frequency of 0.035 s−1...

The Jacobsen catalyst, N,N'-bis(3,5-di-tert-butylsalicylidene)-1,2-cyclohexanediaminomanganese (III) chloride is covalently immobilized on mesoporous phenolic resin through a direct and simple procedure. The immobilization is evident from nitrogen sorption and quantitative XRF measurements. A complex loading of 0.09 mmol/g is obtained, corresponding to well dispersed Mn-complexes on the surface...

Heterogenized metalloporphyrin catalysts for oxidation reactions are extensively explored to improve chemical production. In this work, manganese meso-tetraarylporphyrins were immobilized on hydrated mesoporous titanium dioxide (SBET = 705 m2 g−1) through carboxylate or phosphonate anchoring groups separated from the macrocycle by 2-arylimidazole linker fused across one of pyrrolic rings macroc...

The development of high-performance electrocatalytic systems for the controlled reduction of CO2 to value-added chemicals is a key goal in emerging renewable energy technologies. The lack of selective and scalable catalysts in aqueous solution currently hampers the implementation of such a process. Here, the assembly of a [MnBr(2,2'-bipyridine)(CO)3] complex anchored to a carbon nanotube electr...

A polystyrene-linked tris(triazolyl)methanecopper(i) cationic catalyst operates under heterogeneous conditions for the reaction of ethyl diazoacetate (EDA) with an array of substrates. Carbon-hydrogen as well as X-H (X = O, N) functionalization derived from the formal transfer of the carbene moiety (:CHCO2Et) from the copper center and subsequent insertion have been achieved, the reactions perm...
