TL;DR: In this paper, a series of vanadia-alumina catalysts with different vanadia contents were prepared by a wet impregnation method, and the influence of the local structure of the vanadia in these catalysts on the oxidative dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene with nitrous oxide was investigated.

TL;DR: The first example is reported of a new, molecularly defined SNS-cobalt(ii) catalyst for the acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling (ADC) of unprotected amino alcohols with secondary alcohols leading to pyrrole and pyridine derivatives.

TL;DR: M, verrucaria culture filtrate had 5-6 times more chitinase activity than commercial lytic enzyme preparations and this produced significantly higher levels of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine from the fungal mycelia preparations under study.
Abstract: Myrothecium verrucaria produced high levels of chitinases in a medium containing chitin used as a sole carbon source. Adding 0.03% urea increased the enzyme yield 4-fold in 7 days compared to the control. Adding oxgall (0.1%) to the growth medium gave the maximum activity (acid-swollen chitin-degrading activity, 2.0IU/ml) in 7 days. The biochemical characterization of the chitinase revealed its broader temperature (25-55°C) and pH (4.0-6.5) profiles of activity which showed its potential application in fungal mycelia degradation. Compared to commercial lytic enzyme preparations (NovoZym 234 and Onozuka R-10), M, verrucaria culture filtrate had 5-6 times more chitinase activity. And this produced significantly higher levels of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine from the fungal mycelia preparations under study.

TL;DR: In this article, the catalysts are first activated in the initial reaction, which is started at 535-560°C, by the reduction of NiO and creation of active sites.
Abstract: NiO-LnO x (Ln = lanthanide) catalysts (with Ni∶Ln=1∶1) without prereduction show high activity/selectivity and very high productivity in the oxidative conversion of methane to CO and H2. The catalysts are first activated in the initial reaction, which is started at 535–560°C, by the reduction of NiO and creation of active sites. The carbon deposition on the catalysts in the reaction, particularly for the NiO-Gd2O3, NiO-Tb4O7 and NiO-Dy2O3 catalysts, is quite fast but it has caused a little or no influence on the catalytic activity/selectivity. Pulse reaction of pure methane on NiO-Nd2O3 (at 600°C) shows involvement of lattice oxygen in the initial reaction and also reveals formation of carbon from CO on the catalyst reduced in the reaction.
