• Efficient indium oxide catalysts designed for CO2 hydrogenation to methanol
  

  Catalytic hydrogenation of carbon dioxide (CO2) is a green and sustainable means of synthesizing commodity chemicals such as methanol. This conversion process is key to realizing the "methanol economy" or creating "liquid sunshine", both aspects of the circular economy. Recent studies revealed the p more

• Molecular twist makes one catalyst useful for three hydrogen applications
  

  Scientists from Kyushu University and Kumamoto University in Japan have developed a new catalyst capable of assisting three key reactions for using hydrogen in energy and industry. Inspired by three types of enzymes in nature, this research can help elucidate unknown relationships among catalysts, p more

• Visible light-photocatalytic water-splitting for hydrogenation of aryl chlorides
  

  Activation of inert C-Cl bonds has attracted significant interest due to the inherent fundamental challenge. Conventional dechlorination generally use flammable hydrogen gas (H2), metal hydrides, or organic donors (amines, alcohols, and Hantzsch ester) as hydrogenation reagents. Despite high hydroge more

A Guide to the Different Types of Fat

Fat is an important nutrient in our diets, but there’s a lot of talk of different types of fats, and whether these types are beneficial or harmful to our health. These different fat classifications have their roots in chemistry – and chemistry can also help explain their effects. This graphic takes more

• Atomic hydrogen interactions with gas-phase coronene cations: hydrogenation versus fragmentation

  Sequential hydrogenation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) cations drives a gradual transition from a planar to a puckered geometry and from an aromatic to an aliphatic electronic structure. The resulting H-induced weakening of the molecular structure together with the exothermic nature of th more

• Charge effects regulate reversible CO2 reduction catalysis

  Modular but geometrically constrained ligands were used to investigate the impact of key ligand design parameters (charge and bite angle) on CO2 hydrogenation and formic acid dehydrogenation activity. These studies yielded an optimized catalyst that achieved over 118 000 turnovers in CO2 hydrogenati more

• Theoretical Study of the CO2 Hydrogenation into Formic Acid on Lewis Acidic Zeolites

  Conversion of carbon dioxide (CO2) to more valuable chemicals has nowadays received the increasing attention from an environmental and industrial point of view. Herein, we computationally investigate the CO2 hydrogenation to formic acid on Lewis acidic zeolites by means of the density functional the more
