Ordered mesoporous materials at the beginning of the third millennium: new strategies to create hybrid and non-siliceous variants.
TL;DR: In recent years, research efforts in the field of ordered mesoporous materials are shifting towards either hybrid materials, containing both inorganic (typically silica) and organic functionalities, or towards variants that do not contain silica at all as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Heterogeneous tungsten-based catalysts for the epoxidation of bulky olefins
TL;DR: In this paper, the design of different W and PW heterogeneous catalysts is discussed, and the properties of the designed catalysts are evaluated for the epoxidation of a variety of bulky olefins.
Journal ArticleDOI
Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization of Vinyl Monomers Mediated by Schiff Base Ruthenium−Alkylidene Catalysts and the Adventitious Effect of Water in Polymerizations with the Analogous Cationic Complexes
Bob De Clercq,Francis Verpoort +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of vinyl monomers mediated by Schiff base containing ruthenium−alkylidene catalysts was examined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Zeolitic imidazole framework-67 as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for the conversion of CO2 to cyclic carbonates
Bibimaryam Mousavi,Somboon Chaemchuen,Behrooz Moosavi,Zhixiong Luo,Nadia Gholampour,Francis Verpoort +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a simple and straightforward method at room temperature was used to synthesize a ZIF-67 catalyst for the cycloaddition of carbon dioxide to epoxides to afford cyclic carbonates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metal-organic frameworks containing N-heterocyclic carbenes and their precursors
TL;DR: A survey and discussion of N-heterocyclic carbene precursor-containing MOFs and their various applications are provided in this paper, where the carbenic carbon in Nhetercycleclic carbenes enhances the potential of MOFs synthesized from azolium-containing linkers.
