Journal ArticleDOI
Size matters: why nanomaterials are different
TL;DR: The present tutorial review intends to explain the origin of this special behaviour of nanomaterials, where gold ceases to be noble, and 2-3 nm nanoparticles are excellent catalysts which also exhibit considerable magnetism.
Journal ArticleDOI
EPR investigation of HO/ radical initiated degradation reactions of sulfonated aromatics as model compounds for fuel cell proton conducting membranes
Gerold Hübner,Emil Roduner +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, photolysis of photosynthetic aromatic rings was employed as the source of hydroxyl radicals, and a detailed investigation of the pH profile was carried out for p-toluenesulfonic acid.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selective Catalytic Oxidation of CH Bonds with Molecular Oxygen
Emil Roduner,Wolfgang Kaim,Biprajit Sarkar,Vlada B. Urlacher,Jürgen Pleiss,Roger Gläser,Wolf-Dietrich Einicke,Georg A. Sprenger,Uwe Beifuß,Elias Klemm,Christian Liebner,H. Hieronymus,Shih-Fan Hsu,Bernd Plietker,Sabine Laschat +14 more
TL;DR: Theoretical work on catalyst precursors, resting states, and elementary steps, as well as model reactions complemented by spectroscopic studies provide detailed insight into the molecular mechanisms of oxidation catalyses and pave the way for preparative applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cloning and characterization of a new laccase from Bacillus licheniformis catalyzing dimerization of phenolic acids.
Katja Koschorreck,Sven M. Richter,Augusta Bianca Ene,Emil Roduner,Rolf D. Schmid,Vlada B. Urlacher +5 more
TL;DR: A new laccase gene (cotA) was cloned from Bacillus licheniformis and expressed in Escherichia coli and showed spectroscopic properties, typical for blue multi-copper oxidases, and highest activity of CotA was found towards sinapic acid.
Book
Nanoscopic Materials: Size-Dependent Phenomena
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of dimensionality and symmetry in quantum structures and coordination numbers of small clusters of nanoparticles have been investigated and the consequences of the range of the radial potential energy function have been discussed.
