[EN] The kinetics of the ketonic decarboxylation of linear and branched carboxylic acids over m-ZrO2 as a catalyst has been investigated. The same apparent activation energy is experimentally determined for the ketonic ...
[EN] Developing precious-metal-free electrocatalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is crucial to establishing H-2 produced from renewable energy sources as an alternative energy carrier to fossil fuels. Amorphous ...
[EN] The search for simple, earth-abundant, cheap, and nontoxic metal catalysts able to perform industrial hydrogenations is a topic of interest, transversal to many catalytic processes. Here, we show that isolated FeIII¿O ...

Developing more sustainable catalytic processes for preparing N-heterocyclic compounds in a less costly, compact, and greener manner from cheap and readily available reagents is highly desirable in modern synthetic ...
[EN] We report for the first time the synthesis pathway of nanostructured lithium iridates in molten salts with tunable particle and crystal sizes. The structural analysis confirms that these materials are phase-pure, with ...

[EN] The influence of the crystallographic phase of ZrO2 on its catalytic performance in the MPV reduction of cyclohexanone with propan-2-ol has been systematically investigated by combining accurate synthesis procedures, ...
[EN] Photocatalytic H2 production has emerged as one of the most clean and promising renewable energy sources. In spite of the efforts to obtain efficient photocatalysts able to produce H2 from Sun light and water, there ...
