Journal ArticleDOI

Continuous catalytic "one-pot" multi-step synthesis of 2-ethylhexanal from crotonaldehyde.

TL;DR: 2-ethylhexanal is synthesized directly from crotonaldehyde over a bifunctional acidic resin-supported palladium catalyst via hydrogenation and aldol condensation in supercritical CO2.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reaction induced surface segregation in amorphous CuZr, NiZr and PdZr alloys—an XPS and SIMS depth profiling study

TL;DR: In this article, the activation process of glassy CuZr, NiZr and PdZr alloys is characterized by XPS and SIMS depth profiling, and changes in the oxidation state of zirconium have been traced as a function of depth for Cu30Zr70, Ni64Zr36, and Ni91Zr9.
Journal ArticleDOI

Heterogeneous Coupling of Phenylethyne over Cu–Mg–Al Mixed Oxides: Influence of Catalyst Composition and Calcination Temperature on Structural and Catalytic Properties

TL;DR: In this article, the performance of 1,4-diphenylbuta-1,3-diyne was evaluated in an autoclave under oxygen atmosphere (0.5-4 MPa) at different temperatures (303-353 K).
Journal ArticleDOI

Interconversion of CrO2 formed by decomposition of chromium(III) nitrate nonahydrate

TL;DR: In this article, the products of the decomposition of chromium(III) nitrate nonahydrate (CNN) and interconversions occurring in the system CrO2CrOOH have been investigated using thermal analysis, mass spectrometry, X-ray powder diffraction, and magnetic resonance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Surface structure of crystalline and amorphous chromia catalysts for the selective catalytic reduction of nitric oxide II. Diffuse reflectance FTIR study of thermal treatment and oxygen adsorption

TL;DR: The formation of coordinatively unsaturated chromium sites during thermal activation is monitored by observing the evolution of CrO stretching absorptions both in the fundamental and overtone regions of the FTIR spectrum.
