Journal ArticleDOI
Pseudotetrahedral d0, d1, and d2 metal-Oxo cores within a Tris(alkoxide) platform
TL;DR: Structural, spectroscopic, and reactivity studies indicate that the d electrons in the chromium(V) and -(IV) oxo complexes reside in metal-oxygen antibonding orbitals, engendering disparate reactivity of the metal-oxo, depending on the number of d electrons present.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrogen gas generation using a metal-free fluorinated porphyrin
TL;DR: In this paper, the most favorable hydrogen generation mechanism was proposed to be a (1) reduction, (2) protonation, (3) reduction and (4) proptonation pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI
Strong Electronic Interaction between Two Dimolybdenum Units Linked by a Tetraazatetracene
TL;DR: Calculations at the DFT level using a variety of functionals support that a strong transition in the NIR for the singly oxidized species can be assigned to the HOMO-1 to SOMO transition and indicate that the mixed valence species 2 can be described as electronically delocalized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Magnetic nanoparticle recovery device (MagNERD) enables application of iron oxide nanoparticles for water treatment

TL;DR: An optimized permanent magnetic nanoparticle recovery device (i.e., the MagNERD) was developed and operated to separate, capture, and reuse superparamagnetic Fe3O4 from treated water in-line under continuous flow conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Superparamagnetic MOF@GO Ni and Co based hybrid nanocomposites as efficient water pollutant adsorbents
Karen Ventura,Roy A. Arrieta,Mariana Marcos-Hernández,Vahid Jabbari,Camilah D. Powell,Reagan S. Turley,A.W. Lounsbury,Julie B. Zimmerman,Jorge L. Gardea-Torresdey,Michael S. Wong,Dino Villagrán +10 more
TL;DR: Findings show that the newly developed composite nanoadsorbents can sorb organic pollutants, and target sulfate and silicate anions, which makes them suitable candidates for water and wastewater treatments.
