Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis of 3D Cadmium(II)-Carboxylate Framework Having Potential for Co-Catalyst Free CO2 Fixation to Cyclic Carbonates

TL;DR: In this article , a 3D cadmium(II)-carboxylate framework, CdMOF ([Cd2(L)(DMF)(H2O)2]n), was synthesized by the solvothermal method using a tetracarboxylic bridging linker having amide functional moieties.
Journal ArticleDOI

Solvent-free synthesis of cyclic polycaprolactone catalysed by MOF-derived ZnO/NCs catalysts

TL;DR: In this article, the first time, ZnO dispersed in an N-doped carbon matrix (ZnO/NCs) was derived from the controlled thermal treatment of Zn-DABCO and utilized as a robust heterogeneous catalyst for the polymerization of e-caprolactone.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dataset on the development of palladium nanoparticle decorated colloidal porous organic polymer for photocatalytic Suzuki coupling.

TL;DR: The synthesis and characterization data of visible-light-active colloidal azobenzene-based colloidal porous organic polymer and its Pd-nanoparticle loaded analog are reported and their effect on overall catalysis and mechanistic insight is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Olefin metathesis catalyst. Part II. Activation and characteristics of a ‘molecular’ tungsten unit on silica

TL;DR: In this article, a heterogeneous precursor with respect to the metathesis of olefins has been prepared by a controlled thermal reaction between π-C 5 H 5 W(CO) 3 Cl and a silica support.
Journal ArticleDOI

Carbenoid transfer in competing reactions catalyzed by ruthenium complexes

TL;DR: Aiming at improving catalyst activity, ten ruthenium promoters have been investigated in carbenoid transfer from ethyl diazoacetate to styrene as a model substrate.
