Hybrid Photoanodes Based on Surface-Bound Host-Guest Molecular Assemblies

Academic Background In the field of solar energy conversion, molecular catalysts have attracted significant attention due to their high activity and structural tunability. However, most molecular catalysts operate under homogeneous conditions, which are not favorable for large-scale and recyclable utilization. Therefore, immobilizing molecular cata...

Modulating Hetero-Multimetallic Atoms in Covalent Organic Frameworks for Efficient Oxidization of Olefin Compounds

In the field of synthetic chemistry, modulating the quantity and location of different metal centers to achieve synergistic, tandem, or cooperative effects has always been a technical challenge. Hetero-multinuclear catalysts have garnered significant attention due to their advantages such as high selectivity, cascading production, and specific chem...

Nickel-Mediated Aerobic C(sp2)–Nucleophile Coupling Reactions for Late-Stage Diversification of Aryl Electrophiles

In the field of medicinal chemistry, molecular diversification is a crucial step in the discovery of new drugs. However, existing catalytic methods often face challenges when dealing with complex drug molecules, as these molecules are typically more complex than simple substrates. In particular, the formation of carbon-heteroatom (C–X) bonds is an ...

A Pickering-Emulsion-Droplet-Integrated Electrode for the Continuous-Flow Electrosynthesis of Oximes

Cyclohexanone oxime is a critical intermediate in the production of nylon-6, with global nylon-6 production projected to reach 8.9 million tons by 2024, leading to an increasing demand for cyclohexanone oxime. Traditional methods for synthesizing cyclohexanone oxime primarily involve the reaction of hydroxylamine (NH2OH) with cyclohexanone. However...

Synthesis and Reactivity of an Antimony(III) Dication

Synthesis and Reactivity of an Antimony(III) Dication

In enzyme catalysis, the proximity effect is a common phenomenon that forces reactions to occur by bringing two or more molecules close together. To achieve this effect, the active center requires multiple binding sites to preorganize reactants before the reaction. Although this effect has been extensively studied in enzyme catalysis, its applicati...
