[EN] Relativistic effects in the valence shell of the elements reach a
maximum in the triad Pt¿Au¿Hg and determine their catalytic activity
in organic reactions. In this Review we examine the catalytic activity of
Pt, ...

[ES] Dado su tamaño subnanométrico, los clusters metálicos están regidos por el confinamiento cuántico, lo que les hace más "moleculares" y menos "metálicos". En consecuencia, manifiestan propiedades que difieren con ...
[EN] A thermal method of synthesis and fixation of Pt nanoparticles (Pt NPs) on carbon paper is proposed in this paper. Carbon paper was coated with H2PtCl6 by simple immersion in an ethanol solution containing the Pt ...
We report here the use of a voltammetric electronic tongue based on simple metallic electrodes for the detection and discrimination of different concentrations of 2, 4, 6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) in acetonitrile: water 1:1 ...
Efficient catalysts for the synthesis of functionalized anilines from the corresponding substituted nitroaromatics should combine an excellent chemoselectivity with a high hydrogenation activity. Attempts to increase the ...

The engineered search for new catalysts requires a deep knowledge about reaction mechanisms. Here, with the support of a combination of computational and experimental results, the oxidation mechanism of formic acid on ...
[EN] Untangling the mechanism of the methanol electro-oxidation on platinum in water as a model reaction is essential to optimize fuel cells using alcohols as fuel. Recent experiments unexpectedly suggested that this ...
