Abstract:
... Formate hydrogenlyase-1 (FHL-1) is a complex-I-like enzyme that is commonly found in gram-negative bacteria. The enzyme comprises a peripheral arm and a membrane arm but is not involved in quinone reduction. Instead, FHL-1 couples formate oxidation to the reduction of protons to molecular hydrogen (H₂). Escherichia coli produces FHL-1 under fermentative conditions where it serves to detoxify formi ...

Abstract:
... Zr-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been developed in recent years to treat heavy metals, e.g. hexavalent chromium Cr⁶⁺ pollution, which damages the surrounding ecosystem and threaten human health. This kind of MOF is stable and convenient to prepare, but has the disadvantage of low adsorption capacity, limiting its wide application. To this end, a novel formic acid and amino modified MO ...

By applying a simple method on the generated gas concentration in the center of a round cell through high-speed stirring, we succeeded in continuously monitoring catalytic formic acid dehydrogenation using a newly developed in situ/operando UV-vis-diffuse-reflectance spectroscopy system, which can exhibit a high S/N ratio and reliable spectra without any mechanical errors from gas meters. ...

Quantum chemical calculations were used to study the reaction of CO₂ with H₂ and C₂H₄ to produce formic acid, methyldiol and δ-lactone. Mechanisms of a complete reaction pathway are found and activation barriers are reasonably low. T ...

Abstract:
... We show that dipyridylamine-acetamide (Dpaa), can be cleaved under mild acidic conditions (30% formic acid in dichloromethane). The release of the amine function is orthogonal to other acid-labile protecting groups. Calculations suggest that the ease of Dpaa cleavage relies on activation of the carbonyl function by the protonated dipyridylamine nitrogen and activation of a water molecule by a hydr ...

Abstract:
... Whereas the intramolecular reductive Heck reaction of aryl/vinyl halide and alkene has been well documented, the oxime analogue remains extremely elusive. Herein we report the Pd(0)-catalyzed intramolecular reductive Heck reaction of vinyl iodide and oxime ether with the use of formic acid as the reductant. It is found that the TsOH additive plays a crucial role in the reaction efficiency, and the ...
