Nicolai Dieltiens,Diederica D. Claeys,Viktor V. Zhdankin,Victor N. Nemykin,Bart Allaert,Francis Verpoort,Christian V. Stevens +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a ring-closing ring-opening sequence was used for the synthesis of bicyclic hydantoin derivatives, starting from pyroglutamates and then starting from highly substituted hydantoins under very mild conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of Mixed metal Metal-organic polyhedra networks, colloids, and MOFs and their Pharmacokinetic applications.

TL;DR: These innovative and unconventional MOP networks provide a significant conceptual advance in understanding and demonstrate a high drug hosting potential exhibiting a controlled progressive release of anticancer and stimulant drugs in physiological saline at 37 °C.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cobalt embedded in nitrogen-doped porous carbon as a robust heterogeneous catalyst for the atom-economic alcohol dehydrogenation to carboxylic acids
Cheng Chen,Zhi-Qin Wang,Yanyan Gong,Jichao Wang,Ye Yuan,Hua Cheng,Wei Sang,Somboon Chaemchuen,Somboon Chaemchuen,Francis Verpoort,Francis Verpoort,Francis Verpoort +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a cobalt embedded in nitrogen-doped porous carbon (Co@NC) was developed as a robust heterogeneous catalyst for the dehydrogenative coupling of primary alcohols and hydroxides.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cobalt salophen complexes for light-driven water oxidation
Md. Ali Asraf,Md. Ali Asraf,Hussein A. Younus,Hussein A. Younus,Chizoba I. Ezugwu,Akshay Mehta,Francis Verpoort +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate the photochemical water oxidation catalysed by three cobalt salophen complexes with different axial ligands in the presence of [Ru(bpy)3]2+ as a photosensitizer and Na2S2O8 as an electron acceptor in phosphate buffer of pH 9 and 7.
