Journal ArticleDOI
Oxidation of l-sorbose with molecular oxygen on platinum modified by metals, amines and phosphines
TL;DR: In this article, the use of promoted platinum catalysts for 2-keto-l -gulonic acid was reviewed with a special emphasis on the use with special emphasis of promoted catalysts, and the efficiency of metal, amine and phosphine type promoters was compared.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oxidative coupling of methane over Ca- and alkali metal-doped ThO2
TL;DR: In this paper, the structural properties of the catalysts were characterized by BET, XRD, Raman, TEM, TPD, and EPR techniques, and the presence of oxide ion vacancies due to Ca ion incorporation into ThO2 lattice was evidenced by Raman spectroscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Investigation of carbon-based catalysts by scanning tunneling microscopy: Opportunities and limitations
F. Atamny,Alfons Baiker +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a review of STM studies on carbon materials used in catalysis and discuss possibilities and limitations of scanning probe microscopy (SPM) techniques in the characterization of these materials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rhodium-catalyzed heterogeneous enantioselective hydrogenation of 3,5-di-(trifluoromethyl)-acetophenone
TL;DR: In this paper, an asymmetric hydrogenation of 3,5-di-(trifluoromethyl)-acetophenone to 1-[3,5)-di-phenyl]ethanol was studied over 5.5 kg of 5.% Rh/Al 2 O 3 modified by cinchonidine (CD) and its O -methyl, O -ethyl, O-phenYL, Otrimethylsilyl, N -methyl and N -benzyl derivatives.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enantio selective hydrogenation of isopropyl-4,4,4-trifluoroacetoacetate in a continuous flow reactor
TL;DR: In this article, the feasibility of the synthesis of chiral trifluoromethyl alcohol by continuous hydrogenation over Pt/Al 2 O 3 O 3 was clarified.
