The use of rhodium iodide catalysts in the carbonylation reaction of glycerine leads to saturated and unsaturated acids with C 4 -carbon backbone which can be integrated or are products of the petrochemical value chain. The ratio of the different saturated and unsaturated products can be controlled via the reaction conditions and the catalyst to promoter ratio. A study on potential reaction pathways was included in the study; all experiments were carried out in high throughput mode.
MoVing on up: AgMoVO6, a new crystalline catalyst for the gas‐phase oxidation of o‐xylene, with a remarkably high selectivity to value products, has been developed by high‐throughput experimentation. Doping of the catalyst with elements such as P results in further enhancement of the catalytic properties.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
