Enhancing reductive C–N coupling of nitrocompounds through interfacial engineering of MoO₂ in thin carbon layers

Abstract

The direct reductive C-N coupling of nitrocompounds shows great potential for producing functional secondary amines. In this study, we developed an approach by coating silica nanospheres with polydopamine and metal...

Unlocking the Potential of Liquid Multiphase Systems for Metal‐Catalysed Reactions

“…[48,49] This temperature-mediated miscibility gap which has already proven attractive for the 1). Photos illustrate the reactor at the start/end of the process (1 and 2) and during recycles (3)(4)(5)(6). i-Octane, the IL ([N8,8,8,1]Cl) and the aqueous solution of HMF or FFCA are the top, mid, and bottom layers, respectively.…”

“…[4] When it comes to heterogeneous catalysis, biphasic liquid-solid (LÀ S) or triphasic gas-liquid-solid (GÀ LÀ S) systems are well-recognized for the implementation of both batch and continuous-flow processes. [5][6][7][8] Some widely employed GÀ LÀ S technologies include the synthesis of hydrogen peroxide, the production of heavy oil and synthetic crude from coal, the production of methanol and polyethylene, the flue gas desulfurization, etc. [9] Solid-solid (SÀ S) mechanochemical reactions also deserve attention for their potential in the design of sustainable protocols aimed to reduce or eliminate the need of solvents.…”
