Abstract:
The iron-catalysed hydromagnesiation of styrene derivatives has been developed further from previous publications, expanding the electrophile scope to enable the regioselective formation of new carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bonds (Scheme A1). A commercially available pre-catalyst and ligand were used to give an operationally simple procedure that did not require prior synthesis of a catalyst. This work also investigated the hydromagnesiation of dienes, using a screen of ligands commonly used in transition metal catalysis. An investigation into the magnesium-catalysed hydroboration of ole

Abstract:
Mesoporous silica materials have the potential to replace many conventional silicas for uses such as supports for heterogeneous catalysis and absorbents. The large pore size and high surface area make them ideal for supporting bulky organometallic catalysts for enantioselective reactions. We have immobilised chiral bis(oxazoline) metal complexes onto the surfaces of some of these versatile supports (MCM-41 and MCM-48) via different tethering strategies. The resulting heterogeneous catalysts were shown to be highly active in the enantioselective cyclopropanation of styrene with ethyl diazoaceta

The ever-worsening environmental crisis has stimulated development of less wasteful “green” technologies. To this end, tandem catalysis enables multiple catalytic cycles to be performed within a single reaction vessel, thereby eliminating intermediate processing steps and reducing solvent waste. Assisted tandem catalysis employs suitable chemical triggers to transform the initial catalyst into new species, thereby providing a mechanism for “switching on” secondary catalytic activity.

The gas-phase, thermal hydrogenations of propene and cyclopropane over various titania-supported metal catalysts have been investigated. Catalysts were prepared either by a photodeposition or a thermal reduction method. Absolute initial hydrogenation rates were calculated from total gas pressure vs time measurements. The activities of all catalysts were found to be very dependent upon catalyst state, as modified by reductive or oxidative pretreatments. These results are discussed in terms of reversible strong metal-support interactions, initiated via hydrogen spillover. For 0.5 %mass Pt on Ti0

Two such candidates are organocatalysis, omitting the need for metals where possible, or the use of iron catalysis. Two key areas to the advancement of the of field catalysis are the identificatio

Pyrolysis of biomass has been studied worldwide as a potential path to produce hydrogen from renewable sources. Major problem in a non-catalytic biomass pyrolysis is tar formation, which causes complication in the utilization of product gas. Elimination of tar requires a high temperature, and it leads to low energy efficiency since tar itself contains high potential energy. The utilization of metal catalysts is considered an effective method to reduce tar content and subsequently increase the hydrogen production.
