Journal ArticleDOI

Low-temperature aqueous-phase methanol dehydrogenation to hydrogen and carbon dioxide

TL;DR: An efficient low-temperature aqueous-phase methanol dehydrogenation process, which is facilitated by ruthenium complexes is described, which would make the delivery of hydrogen on mobile devices—and hence the use of meethanol as a practical hydrogen carrier—feasible.
Journal ArticleDOI

Well-Defined Iron Catalyst for Improved Hydrogenation of Carbon Dioxide and Bicarbonate

TL;DR: High-pressure NMR studies of the hydrogenation of carbon dioxide demonstrate that the corresponding iron-hydridodihydrogen complex 4 is crucial in the catalytic cycle.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selective Hydrogen Production from Methanol with a Defined Iron Pincer Catalyst under Mild Conditions

TL;DR: For the first time, the use of earth-abundant iron complexes under mild conditions for efficient hydrogen generation from alcohols is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hydrogenation of esters to alcohols with a well-defined iron complex.

TL;DR: This work presents the first base-free Fe-catalyzed ester reduction applying molecular hydrogen, and reveals an outer-sphere mechanism involving simultaneous hydrogen transfer from the iron center and the ligand.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mild and selective hydrogenation of aromatic and aliphatic (di)nitriles with a well-defined iron pincer complex.

TL;DR: This study describes a molecular-defined iron complex, which allows for the hydrogenation of aryl, alkyl, heterocyclic nitriles and dinitriles, and constitutes the first example of an homogeneous catalyst, which permits the selective hydrogenations of industrially important adipodinitrile to 1,6-hexamethylenediamine.
