[EN] Pd-supported catalysts are fundamental tools in organic reactions involving H-2 splitting. Here we show that 1,4-enediols enriched in one diastereoisomer are produced from the classical Pd-catalyzed semi-hydrogenation ...
[EN] Glycols and ethoxy- and propoxy-alcohols are fundamental chemicals in industry, with annual productions of millions of tons, still manufactured in many cases with corrosive and unrecoverable catalysts such as KOH, ...

[EN] The de-novo synthesis of soluble or solid-supported Pd-(CaCO3)(n) clusters (n = 2-13) and their high catalytic activity for the semi-hydrogenation of internal alkynes compared to terminal alkynes, is presented. ...

[ES] En esta Tesis se ha estudiado en profundidad la reacción de semi-hidrogenación de alquinos catalizada por materiales de paladio. Más especificamente, esta Tesis empieza estudiando un sistema simple para la semi-hidrogenación ...
[EN] Metal single-atom catalysts (SACs) promise great rewards in terms of metal atom efficiency. However, the requirement of particular conditions and supports for their synthesis, together with the need of solvents and ...
