Bidentate Lewis acid catalysts in asymmetric synthesis*
The chemistry of bidentate Lewis acids belongs to an unexplored field of science, and so far has been only poorly studied. This paper illustrates the design of several bidentate Al and Ti Lewis acids, and their successful application to selective organic synthesis, particularly to asymmetric synthesis. For example, a new, chiral bidentate Ti(IV) complex is successfully designed by adding commer...
متن کاملPhosphate-Tolerant Oxygen Reduction Catalysts
Increased oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) kinetics, improved CO tolerance, and more efficient water and heat management represent significant advantages that high-temperature polymer electrolyte fuel cells (HT-PEFCs) operating with a phosphoric acid-doped polybenzimidazole (PBI) membrane offer over traditional Nafion-based, low-temperature PEFCs. However, before such HT-PEFCs become viable, the...
متن کاملCobalt Oxide and Cobalt‐Graphitic Carbon Core–Shell Based Catalysts with Remarkably High Oxygen Reduction Reaction Activity
The vital role of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid on the structure and the oxygen reduction reaction activity of the non-precious-metal-based pyrolyzed catalyst is reported and elaborated. The resultant catalyst can overtake the performance of commercial Pt/C catalyst in an alkaline medium.
متن کاملA New Class of Oxidation Catalysts: the role of atomically dispersed metals in nanostructured oxides
The need for high purity hydrogen for use in lowtemperature fuel cells has led to a resurgence of interest in the purification of hydrogen derived from reforming carbon -based feedstocks. A common process used to reduce the carbon monoxide concentration of the reformate gas to an acceptable level is the water gas shift reaction (WGSR). In the reaction, carbon monoxide is combined with water to ...
متن کاملDevelopment of Ruthenium-Based Catalysts for Oxygen Reduction Reaction
A process was developed to synthesize ruthenium-based chelate RuNx electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction, using RuCl3 and propylene diammine as the Ru and N precursors, respectively. High-temperature pyrolysis has a critical role in the formation of the catalytic Ru–N sites for oxygen reduction. The RuNx catalyst modified in the presence of nitrogen-containing organic exhibited com...
