Highly selective hydrogenation of phenol and derivatives over a Pd@carbon nitride catalyst in aqueous media
TLDR
A catalyst made of Pd nanoparticles supported on a mesoporous graphitic carbon nitride, Pd@mpg-C(3)N(4), which was shown to be highly active and promoted the selective formation of cyclohexanone under atmospheric pressure of hydrogen in aqueous media without additives.Abstract:
Cyclohexanone is an important intermediate in the manufacture of polyamides in chemical industry, but direct selective hydrogenation of phenol to cyclohexanone under mild conditions is a challenge....read more

Excellent visible-light photocatalysis of fluorinated polymeric carbon nitride solids
TL;DR: Fluorination of polymeric carbon nitride solids has been performed by using ammonium fluoride as a cheap fluorine source as mentioned in this paper, which not only provides the modified open texture but also enables the effective adjustment of the electronic band gaps, which makes them exhibit excellent photocatalytic activity in both hydrogen production from water and oxidization of benzene to phenol under visible light.
