- Abstract:
- ... Mechanochemistry enabled the selective synthesis of the recherché orange polymorph of Wilkinson's catalyst [RhCl(PPh₃)₃]. The mechanochemically prepared Rh-complex catalysed the solvent-free dehydrogenation of Me₂NH·BH₃ in a ball mill. The in situ-generated hydrogen (H₂) could be utilised for Rh-catalysed hydrogenation reactions by ball milling. ...

- Abstract:
- ... Surface-catalyzed reactions provide a versatile route to synthesizing new 2D materials. Here, we show that the statistical nature of an activated reaction can lead to a diversity of intermolecular bonding motifs through partially-reacted molecules. With increasing annealing, we observe different periodic, well-defined phases of 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid on Ag(111), where the surface structur ...

- Abstract:
- ... 1,2,3-Trisilacyclopentadienes are obtained from the reactions of cyclotrisilene c-Si₃R₄ (R = iPr₃C₆H₂) with phenyl and diphenyl acetylene, respectively. With 1,4-diethynyl benzene the cross-conjugated bridging of two of the Si₃C₂ cycles by a para-phenylene linker is achieved. UV/vis spectroscopy indicates a small but significant effect of cross-conjugation, which is confirmed by TD-DFT calculation ...

Photocatalytic proton reduction to generate H₂ was achieved with the photosensitizers Rh₂(DTolF)₂(npCOO)₂ (DTolF = p-ditolylformamidinate; npCOO⁻ = 2-carboxylate-1,8-naphthyridine; 1) and [Rh₂(DTolF)₂(qnnp)₂][BF₄]₂ (qnnp = 2-(quinolin-2-yl)-1,8-naphthyridine; 2) using a relay system containing the sacrificial donor BNAH (1-benzyl-1,4-dihydronicotinamide), electron acceptor MV²⁺ (methylviologen), a ...

- Abstract:

Single NM3ABC treatment of human monocyte-derived macrophages produced sustained intracellular carbovir-triphosphate and antiretroviral activities for up to 30 days. ...

- Abstract:
- ... Inspired by cisplatin's deactivation by glutathione (GSH) in cancer, a GSH responsive nanogel loaded with doxorubicin (Dox) was prepared using hyaluronan as a matrix and cisplatin as a crosslinker. The elevated GSH depletes the cisplatin crosslinker in the nanogel, enhances Dox release and boosts cytotoxicity, thus providing a new GSH responsive platform to reverse cisplatin resistance. ...

Varying the reaction ratio of cyclic (alkyl)(amino) carbene (cAACᴱᵗ) with AlH₃·NEtMe₂ leads to the isolation of (cAACᴱᵗH)AlH₂·NEtMe₂1 and (cAACᴱᵗH)₂Al(μ-H)₂AlH₂·NEtMe₂2 and the first example of a monomeric dialkyl-aluminum hydride (cAACᴱᵗH)₂AlH 3.

- Abstract:
- ... Surface phase heterogeneity within a fully charged LiCoO₂ (LCO) composite electrode before and after thermal decomposition has been shown to strongly depend on the distribution of the binder and carbon additives, but be independent of the crystalline facet and size of LCO, as revealed by X-ray photoemission electron microscopy (X-PEEM). The obtained new insights deepen the understanding of thermal ...

- Abstract:
- ... High-performance CO₂ sorbents typically contain both alkaline compounds and inert supporting materials. The convention is broken by TiO(OH)₂. The CO₂ sorption capacity of nanostructured TiO(OH)₂ reaches 6.1 mmol g⁻¹, while its CO₂ sorption selectivity for CO₂/N₂ mixtures is much higher than that of state-of-the-art sorbents, activated carbon and zeolite, which is another surprise. ...
