Highly selective oxidation of methane to methanol at ambient conditions by titanium dioxide-supported iron species
Jijia Xie,Renxi Jin,Ang Li,Yingpu Bi,Qiushi Ruan,Yucheng Deng,Yajun Zhang,Siyu Yao,Gopinathan Sankar,Ding Ma,Junwang Tang +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a photocatalytic approach based on TiO2-supported iron oxide species is described, which affords methanol in high yield and selectivity at ambient conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intelligent Multifunctional VO2/SiO2/TiO2 Coatings for Self-Cleaning, Energy-Saving Window Panels
Michael Powell,Raul Quesada-Cabrera,Alaric Taylor,Diana Teixeira,Ioannis Papakonstantinou,Robert G. Palgrave,Gopinathan Sankar,Ivan P. Parkin +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a robust, multifunctional, robust, layered VO2/SiO2/TiO2 films were quickly deposited on glass substrates using atmospheric-pressure chemical vapor deposition and fully characterized using structural, vibrational spectroscopy, and electron microscopy techniques.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hensen,Sergey L. Veber,Matvey V. Fedin,Gopinathan Sankar,Evgeny A. Pidko,Evgeny A. Pidko,Evgeny A. Pidko,Jorge Gascon,Jorge Gascon +19 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a site-isolated mixed-metal metal organic framework (MOF) that mimics the reactivity of soluble methane monooxygenase enzyme is presented. But the authors focus on the synthesis and characterization of an Fe-containing MOF that comprises the desired antiferromagnetically coupled high-spin species in a coordination environment closely resembling that of the enzyme.

SAPO-18 Catalysts and Their Broensted Acid Sites
Jie-Sheng Chen,Paul A. Wright,John Meurig Thomas,Srinivasan Natarajan,Leonardo Marchese,Susan M. Bradley,Gopinathan Sankar,C. Richard A. Catlow,Pratibha L. Gai-Boyes +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the incorporation of silicon via direct synthesis into AlPO4-18 (AET), which has a framework structure related to, but crystallographically distinct from, that of the well-known solid acid catalyst SAPO-34, was investigated by a range of techniques.
