Hydrochlorination of Acetylene Catalyzed by an Activated Carbon-Supported Ammonium Hexachlororuthenate Complex

Activated Carbon Supported Mo-Ti-N Binary Transition Metal Nitride as Catalyst for Acetylene Hydrochlorination

Recently, many scientists have focused on the development of green industrial technology. However, the process of synthesizing vinyl chloride faces the problem of Hg pollution. Via a novel approach, we used two elements Mo and Ti to prepare an inexpensive and green binary transition metal nitride (BTMN) as the active ingredient in a catalyst with nano-sized particles and an excellent degree of ...

Aqua regia activated Au/C catalysts for the hydrochlorination of acetylene

Selective reduction of carbon dioxide to bis(silyl)acetal catalyzed by a PBP-supported nickel complex.

The selective reduction of CO2 to the formaldehyde level remains an important challenge and to date only a few catalysts have been developed for this reaction. Herein, we report an efficient catalyst that consists of a bis(phosphino)boryl nickel hydride complex in combination with B(C6F5)3, for the highly selective hydrosilation of CO2 to bis(silyl)acetal derivatives.

Identification of single-site gold catalysis in acetylene hydrochlorination.

There remains considerable debate over the active form of gold under operating conditions of a recently validated gold catalyst for acetylene hydrochlorination. We have performed an in situ x-ray absorption fine structure study of gold/carbon (Au/C) catalysts under acetylene hydrochlorination reaction conditions and show that highly active catalysts comprise single-site cationic Au entities who...

Enhanced dehydrogenation of LiBH4 catalyzed by carbon-supported Pt nanoparticles.

The catalytic dehydrogenation of LiBH(4) doped with exceptionally low quantities of carbon-supported Pt nanoparticles can be improved significantly, and smaller Pt nanoparticles result in greater enhanced catalytic dehydrogenation of LiBH(4) than do larger Pt nanoparticles.
