The guanidine 1,5,7-triazabicyclo[4.4.0]dec-5-ene (TBD) and the substituted derivatives [TBD-SiR ] and TBD-BR reacted with SO to give different FLP-SO adducts. Molecular structures, elucidated by X-ray diffraction, showed some structural similarities with the analogous CO adducts. Thermodynamic stabilities were both experimentally evidenced and computed through DFT calculations. The underlying parameters governing the relative stabilities of the different SO and CO adducts were discussed from a theoretical standpoint, with a focus on the influence of the Lewis acidic moiety.

Surface Reconstructed NiPt/Si Photoelectrodes for Bias-free Hydrogen Evolution Coupled with 5-hydroxymethylfurfural Oxidation.

Coupling hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) with biomass valorization using a photoelectrochemical (PEC) system presents a promising approach for effectively converting solar energy to chemical energy. A crucial biomass valorization reaction is the production of value-added 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) via 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) oxidation reaction (HMFOR). To achieve efficient FDCA production, we demonstrate an effective photoanode strategy that combines metal silicidation, dopant segregation, and surface reconstruction to create a bimetallic silicide NiPtSi/n-Si photoanode.

Reductive C(sp)-Si Cross-Couplings by Catalytic Sodium-Bromine Exchange.

The metal-halogen exchange reaction constitutes one of the most important preparative routes towards polar organometallic reagents such as aryllithium or Grignard reagents. However, despite extensive developments over the past eight decades, this fundamental organometallic elementary step has only been exploited stoichiometrically. Against this background, we demonstrate that the sodium-bromine exchange reaction can be implemented in a catalytic setting as a mean to activate C(sp)-Br bonds in a transition metal-free manner en route to the regioselective and general preparation of (hetero)aryl silanes.

Commercial SSZ-13 zeolite with different n(Si)/n(Al) ratios and from different suppliers were subjected to a post-synthetic treatment in order to create mesopores of up to 15 nm. Furthermore, the materials were modified with copper ions and thoroughly physico-chemically characterized. The modified textural properties varied the nature of copper species, and thus, activity in the selective catalytic reduction of NO with ammonia (NH-SCR-DeNO).
