Ruthenium Indenylidene and Vinylidene Complexes bearing Schiff Bases: Potential Catalysts in Enol-Ester Synthesis
Tom Opstal,Francis Verpoort +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the ruthenium(II) Schiff-base chemistry was investigated and the catalytic system, substrate and carboxylic acid can provide alk- 1-en-2-yl esters, alk-1en-1-yl synthesis or enyne dimerization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Engineered synthesis of hierarchical porous organic polymers for visible light and natural sunlight induced rapid degradation of azo, thiazine and fluorescein based dyes in a unique mechanistic pathway
TL;DR: In this paper, two hierarchical organic polymeric networks were synthesized for extremely efficient visible light and natural sunlight induced degradation of versatile wastewater organic contaminants under different simulated physical conditions following two distinct mechanistic protocols concomitantly.
Journal ArticleDOI
A recyclable AgI/OAc− catalytic system for the efficient synthesis of α-alkylidene cyclic carbonates: carbon dioxide conversion at atmospheric pressure
TL;DR: In this paper, a green and recyclable AgI/OAc− system under atmospheric pressure was shown to be the most efficient system with 20 recycle rounds and has the lowest loading among all the reported systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative Investigation of Hoveyda–Grubbs Catalysts bearing Modified N‐Heterocyclic Carbene Ligands
TL;DR: In this article, the structural modification of Hoveyda-grubbs complexes through the introduction of either an N-alkyl-N′-mesityl heterocyclic carbene, an Nalkyl N′-(2,6-diisopropylphenyl) heterocycyl) carbene or an N−alkyl−N−-N−δ-kyl heterocycyclic carbenes was reported, and a pronounced influence on both catalyst activity and selectivity was found to be exerted by the NHC amino substit
Journal ArticleDOI
Defect formation in metal–organic frameworks initiated by the crystal growth-rate and effect on catalytic performance
Somboon Chaemchuen,Zhixiong Luo,Zhixiong Luo,Kui Zhou,Bibimaryam Mousavi,Suphot Phatanasri,Mietek Jaroniec,Francis Verpoort +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the defect formation in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) initiated by the crystal growth-rate of different synthesis procedures affects the structure, morphology and other properties of MOFs such as particle shape, gas adsorption capacity and specifically catalytic performance etc.
