• Chemists develop safer hydrogenation processes

  Safe and environmentally-friendly hydrogen gas on demand could be on the horizon following a new "hydrogenation" chemical process in development at The City College of New York. Led by Mahesh K. Lakshman, the research uniquely bypasses the need for an external source of hydrogen gas to accomplish a more

• Otto-Roelen Medal for Frank Glorius
  

  Prof. Frank Glorius from Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster / Germany receives the Otto-Roelen Medal 2020. This prize will be awarded by DECHEMA and the German Catalysis Society in recognition of his developments in the field of chemo- and stereoselective hydrogenation of aromatics. The award more

• Water could modulate the activity and selectivity of CO2 reduction
  

  As an alternative to the depletion of fossil resources, the reduction of CO2 emitted from fossil fuel combustion into valuable chemicals and fuel has drawn increasing attention. Due to the highly thermodynamic stability of CO2, it is still very challenging to find a sustainable and cost-efficient ro 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
