Shape-controlled Copper Nanocrystals as Electrocatalysts for CO2RR

The electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) has the potential to mitigate the rising CO2 levels while storing renewable energy in chemical bonds. Copper is the only single metal electrocatalyst producing high energy dense hydrocarbons, albeit into 1 ...

Nanocrystal/Metal–Organic Framework Hybrids as Electrocatalytic Platforms for CO2 Conversion

Raffaella Buonsanti, Mounir Driss Mensi, Pascal Alexander Schouwink, Jan Vávra, James Richard Pankhurst, Valeria Mantella, Yannick Thomas Guntern

The tunable chemistry linked to the organic/inorganic components in colloidal nanocrystals (NCs) and metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) offers a rich playground to advance the fundamental understanding of materials design for various applications. Herein, we ...

Silver Nitrate-Catalyzed Isocyanide Insertion/Lactamization Sequence to Imidazolones and Quinazolin-4-ones: Development and Application in Natural Product Synthesis

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Antonin François Roland Clemenceau

Silver nitrate-catalyzed reaction of methyl α,α-disubstituted α-isocyanoacetates with primary amines afforded 3,5,5-trisubstituted imidazolones in good to excellent yields. A silver salt-catalyzed insertion of the isocyano group into the N−H bond of the am ...

Spectrally Filtered Imaging and Vacuum Ultraviolet Spectroscopy of Preheated Models in X2

Pénélope Leyland, Umar Sheikh

This study presents calibrated vacuum ultraviolet spectroscopic measurements and filtered cyanogen violet band images for steel, cold graphite, and preheated graphite models at three reentry-relevant conditions in the X2 Expansion Tube. An analysis of thes ...

To each his own: isonitriles for all flavors. Functionalized isocyanides as valuable tools in organic synthesis

Jieping Zhu, Andrea Basso

The term functionalized isocyanides refers to all those isocyanides in which a neighbouring functional group can finely tune the reactivity of the isocyano group or can be exploited in post-functionalization processes. In this manuscript, we have reviewed ...

Switchable [3+2] and [4+2] Heteroannulation of Primary Propargylamines with Isonitriles to Imidazoles and 1,6-Dihydropyrimidines: Catalyst Loading Enabled Reaction Divergence

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Shuo Tong

Isonitrile 1 due to its carbene-like reactivity serves generally as a one-carbon synthon in a diverse set of organic transformations. We report in this article that the isocyano group can also act as a polarized triple bond to undergo, as a two-atom syntho ...

The Molecular Mechanism of the Catalase-like Activity in Horseradish Peroxidase

Ursula Röthlisberger, Pablo Campomanes Ramos

Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) is one of the most relevant peroxidase enzymes, used extensively in immunochemistry and biocatalysis applications. Unlike the closely related catalase enzymes, it exhibits a low activity to disproportionate hydrogen peroxide (H ...

Ag-44(SR)(30)(4-): a silver-thiolate superatom complex

Francesco Stellacci, Kellen Michael Harkness

Intensely and broadly absorbing nanoparticles (IBANs) of silver protected by arylthiolates were recently synthesized and showed unique optical properties, yet question of their dispersity and their molecular formulas remained. Here IBANs are identified as ...

Measured binding coefficients for iodine and ruthenium dyes; implications for recombination in dye sensitised solar cells

Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Robin Humphry-Baker, Filippo de Angelis, Xiong Li

We have measured the binding coefficients of iodine to three dyes used in Dye Sensitised Solar Cells (DSSCs). Binding coefficients are quantified via the effect of iodine binding on the UV-vis spectrum of the dye. From iodine titration curves of dye sensit ...

Thiolato gold(I) complexes containing water-soluble phosphane ligands: a characterization of their chemical and biological properties

Angela Casini, Catherine Marie Amélie Clavel, elena vergara

A series of thiolate gold(I) derivatives bearing water soluble phosphanes - namely sodium triphenylphosphane monosulfonate (TPPMS), sodium triphenylphosphane trisulfonate (TPPTS), 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane (PTA) and 3,7-diacetyl-1,3,7-triaza-5-phosp ...

Growth and characterization of fullerene nanocrystals on NaCl/Au(111)

Wolf-Dieter Schneider, François Patthey, Marina Pivetta, Elizabeta Cavar, Frédéric Rossel

The growth of fullerene nanocrystals, composed of only C-60, only C-70, or a mixture of both fullerenes, has been investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). The nanocrystals, formed on a NaCl ultrathin layer partially covering a Au(111) surface, ...

Meta- rather than ortho-directed metalations: Buttressing effects prejudicing the proton abstraction from (2,6-dihalophenyl)silanes

Christophe Heiss, Fabrice Cottet

(2,6-Dichlorophenyl)trimethyl- and -triethylsilane exhibit untypical reactivity patterns toward strong bases. When treated at -100 DegC with lithium 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidide, they give rise to two, with sec- or tert-butyllithium even three, different ...
