Manganese oxide octahedral molecular sieves (OMS-2) could act as an efficient, reusable heterogeneous catalyst for transformation of various primary amines to the corresponding primary amides through the sequence of oxidative dehydrogenation and successive hydration.

The fluorescent dihydropyrimido[1,2-a]quinoline chromophore of the pyoverdin siderophores has been synthesized by a biomimetic oxidative cyclization using an iodine(III) reagent, followed by elimination and dehydrogenation.

Promoted by diethyl azodicarboxylate, a novel and highly stereoselective synthesis of cis-β-enaminones via oxidative dehydrogenation and hydration of the substituted propargylamines was realized. The possible mechanism was also proposed.

A unique electrocatalytic oxidative dehydrogenation of aldehydes and its facile kinetics on a Cu-based porous electrode enables an ultra-low voltage bipolar H 2 production system with industrial-relevant current densities.

The extent of reduction of active centers during oxidative alkane dehydrogenation on VOx/Al2O3 was measured from pre-edge UV-visible spectral features and found to increase with increasing VOx domain size and propane/O2 ratio.

Oxidative dehydrogenation of amines using heterogeneous gold catalysts has unanticipated potential; chemisorbed atomic oxygen is used to activate propylamine, producing propionitrile and/or propionaldehyde on a single-crystal Au(111) surface.

Bulk gold powder (approximately 10(3) nm particle size) is a highly active catalyst for the oxidative dehydrogenation of secondary amines to imines under the mild conditions of 1 atm O2 and 60-100 degrees C.

Continuous-flow, gas-phase selective oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) of unsaturated long chain alcohols ( i.e. decen-1-ol isomers) to the corresponding aldehydes over an innovative, highly dispersed Cu-based catalyst supported ferrite.

The cationic [2-(2'-hydroxyphenyl)-2-oxazolinato(-2)]oxorhenium(v) complex promotes oxidative dehydrogenation of organosilanes with water and alcohols in a catalytic manner to give excellent yields of silanols and silyl ethers, respectively. The reactions proceed conveniently under ambient and open-flask conditions with low catalyst loading (<or=1 mol%). The scope of the reaction with water is ...

Butenes and butadiene, which are useful intermediates for the synthesis of polymers and other compounds, are synthesized traditionally by oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) of n-butane over complex metal oxides. Such catalysts require high O2/butane ratios to maintain the activity, which leads to unwanted product oxidation. We show that carbon nanotubes with modified surface functionality efficien...
