Tandem Pauson-Khand Reaction Using Carbon Dioxide as the C1-Source

Paul Joseph Dyson, Serhii Shyshkanov, Kedar Ashok Abhyankar

We describe the use of CO2 as a promising C1 source instead of CO in the tandem Pauson-Khand reaction. The reaction is achieved by combining the reduction of CO2 to CO using a metal organic framework (MOF) catalyst with homogeneous rhodium catalysts for th ...

Principal Descriptors of Ionic Liquid Co-catalysts for the Electrochemical Reduction of CO2

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Paul Joseph Dyson, Dmitry Vasilyev, Erfan Shirzadi, Serhii Shyshkanov

Electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2RR) is promoted by ionic liquid (IL) co-catalysts, and several mechanisms have been proposed to explain their role. Due to the complexity of the CO2RR and the limited number of active IL co-catalysts, a conse ...

CO(2)Methanation via Amino Alcohol Relay Molecules Employing a Ruthenium Nanoparticle/Metal Organic Framework Catalyst

Paul Joseph Dyson, Zhaofu Fei, Kyriakos Stylianou, Arunraj Chidambaram, Serhii Shyshkanov, Ngoc Tú Nguyên, Xinjiang Cui

Methanation of carbon dioxide (CO2) is attractive within the context of a renewable energy refinery. Herein, we report an indirect methanation method that harnesses amino alcohols as relay molecules in combination with a catalyst comprising ruthenium nanop ...

Frustrated Lewis pair-mediated fixation of CO2 within a metal-organic framework

Paul Joseph Dyson, Kyriakos Stylianou, Arunraj Chidambaram, Serhii Shyshkanov, Ngoc Tú Nguyên

Finding pragmatic solutions to curb the accumulation of atmospheric CO2 and tackle the associated greenhouse effect is challenging. Herein, we demonstrate the use of an in situ formed frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) within a metal-organic framework (MOF) to ef ...

In Situ Formation of Frustrated Lewis Pairs in a Water-Tolerant Metal-Organic Framework for the Transformation of CO2

Paul Joseph Dyson, Fatmah Ebrahim, Kyriakos Stylianou, Serhii Shyshkanov, Ngoc Tú Nguyên

Frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs) consist of sterically hindered Lewis acids and Lewis bases, which provide high catalytic activity towards non-metal-mediated activation of "inert" small molecules, including CO2 among others. One critical issue of homogeneous ...

Selective, Fast-Response, and Regenerable Metal-Organic Framework for Sampling Excess Fluoride Levels in Drinking Water

Paul Joseph Dyson, Fatmah Ebrahim, Kyriakos Stylianou, Andrzej Gladysiak, Serhii Shyshkanov, Ngoc Tú Nguyên, Patrick Favre

Prolonged consumption of water contaminated with fluoride ions (F-) at concentrations exceeding 1.5 ppm can lead to considerable health implications, particularly in children and developing embryos. With irreversible and potentially severe forms of fluorid ...
