One-pot synthesis of graphene-supported monodisperse Pd nanoparticles as catalyst for formic acid electro-oxidation.

ABSTRACT: To synthesize monodisperse palladium nanoparticles dispersed on reduced graphene oxide (RGO) sheets, we have developed an easy and scalable solvothermal reduction method from an organic solution system. The RGO-supported palladium nanoparticles with a diameter of 3.8?nm are synthesized in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) and in the presence of oleylamine and trioctylphosphine, which facilitates simultaneous reduction of graphene oxide and formation of Pd nanocrystals. So-produced Pd/RGO was tested for potential use as electrocatalyst for the electro-oxidation of formic acid. Pd/RGO catalyzes formic acid oxidation very well compared to Pd/Vulcan XC-72 catalyst. This synthesis method is a new way to prepare excellent electrocatalysts, which is of great significance in energy-related catalysis.

Pd3Co1 Alloy Nanocluster on the MWCNT Catalyst for Efficient Formic Acid Electro-Oxidation.

Project description:In this study, the Pd3Co1 alloy nanocluster from a multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCTN) catalyst was fabricated in deep eutectic solvents (DESs) (referred to Pd3Co1/CNTs). The catalyst shows a better mass activity towards the formic acid oxidation reaction (FAOR) (2410.1 mA mgPd-1), a better anti-CO toxicity (0.36 V) than Pd/CNTs and commercial Pd/C. The improved performance of Pd3Co1/CNTs is attributed to appropriate Co doping, which changed the electronic state around the Pd atom, lowered the d-band of Pd, formed a new Pd-Co bond act at the active sites, affected the adsorption of the toxic intermediates and weakened the dissolution of Pd; moreover, with the assistance of DES, the obtained ultrafine Pd3Co1 nanoalloy exposes more active sites to enhance the dehydrogenation process of the FAOR. The study shows a new way to construct a high-performance Pd-alloy catalyst for the direct formic acid fuel cell.

Captopril supported on magnetic graphene nitride, a sustainable and green catalyst for one-pot multicomponent synthesis of 2-amino-4H-chromene and 1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyrimidine.

Project description:Captopril (CAP) is a safe, cost-effective, and environmentally organic compound that can be used as an effective organo-catalyst. Functional groups of captopril make it capable to attach to solid support and acting as promoters in organic transformations. In this work, captopril was attached to the surface of magnetic graphene nitride by employing a linker agent. The synthesized composite efficiently catalyzed two multicomponent reactions including the synthesis of 1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyrimidine and 2-amino-4H-chromene derivatives. A large library of functional targeted products was synthesized in mild reaction conditions. More importantly, this catalyst was stable and magnetically recycled and reused for at least five runs without losing catalytic activity.

Optimal Electrocatalytic Pd/MWNTs Nanocatalysts toward Formic Acid Oxidation.

Project description:The operating conditions such as composition of electrolyte and temperature can greatly influence the formic acid (HCOOH) oxidation reaction (FAOR). Palladium decorated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (Pd/MWNTs) were successfully synthesized and employed as nanocatalysts to explore the effects of formic acid, sulfuric acid (H2SO4) concentration and temperature on FAOR. Both the hydrogen adsorption in low potential range and the oxidation of poisoning species during the high potential range in cyclic voltammetry were demonstrated to contribute to the enhanced electroactivity of Pd/MWNTs. The as-synthesized Pd/MWNTs gave the best performance under a condition with balanced adsorptions of HCOOH and H2SO4 molecules. The dominant dehydrogenation pathway on Pd/MWNTs can be largely depressed by the increased dehydration pathway, leading to an increased charge transfer resistance (Rct ). Increasing HCOOH concentration could directly increase the dehydration process proportion and cause the production of COads species. H2SO4 as donor of H+ greatly facilitated the onset oxidation of HCOOH in the beginning process but it largely depressed the HCOOH oxidation with excess amount of H+. Enhanced ion mobility with increasing the temperature was mainly responsible for the increased current densities, improved tolerance stabilities and reduced Rct values, while dehydration process was also increased simultaneously.

Oxidation-Induced "One-Pot" Click Chemistry.

Project description:Click chemistry has been established rapidly as one of the most valuable methods for the chemical transformation of complex molecules. Due to the rapid rates, clean conversions to the products, and compatibility of the reagents and reaction conditions even in complex settings, it has found applications in many molecule-oriented disciplines. From the vast landscape of click reactions, approaches have emerged in the past decade centered around oxidative processes to generate in situ highly reactive synthons from dormant functionalities. These approaches have led to some of the fastest click reactions know to date. Here, we review the various methods that can be used for such oxidation-induced "one-pot" click chemistry for the transformation of small molecules, materials, and biomolecules. A comprehensive overview is provided of oxidation conditions that induce a click reaction, and oxidation conditions are orthogonal to other click reactions so that sequential "click-oxidation-click" derivatization of molecules can be performed in one pot. Our review of the relevant literature shows that this strategy is emerging as a powerful approach for the preparation of high-performance materials and the generation of complex biomolecules. As such, we expect that oxidation-induced "one-pot" click chemistry will widen in scope substantially in the forthcoming years.

One-pot synthesis of graphene- cobalt hydroxide composite nanosheets (Co/G NSs) for electrocatalytic water oxidation.

Project description:We report a one-pot method for the preparation of graphene-cobalt hydroxide nanosheets (Co/G NSs) and their use as an effective elelctrocatalyst for water oxidation. Mechanical exfoliation of graphite via sonication produced graphene sheets, which were stabilized by the surface adsorption of a cationic surfactant (CTAB). In a subsequent step, varying amount of a cobalt complex [sodium hexanitrocobaltate(III)] was added which selectively bound with the positively charged head of surfactant. In the last step, cobalt complex was reduced with sodium borohydride to obtain Co/G NSs catalyst. The catalyst showed lower overpotential (280?mV) as compared to benchmark catalysts and decent stability and turnover frequency (TOF: 0.089?s-1) for oxygen evolution reaction (OER).

Monodisperse thiourea functionalized graphene oxide-based PtRu nanocatalysts for alcohol oxidation.

Project description:Addressed herein, thiourea functionalized graphene oxide-based PtRu nanocatalysts (PtRu@T/GO) has been synthesized and characterized by several techniques and performed for methanol oxidation reactions as novel catalysts. In this study, graphene oxide (GO) was functionalized with thiourea (T/GO) in order to obtain monothiol functionalized graphene and increase the stability and activity of the nanocatalysts. Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), TEM (transmission electron microscopy) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM) were used for characterization of the prepared nanocatalysts. The results obtained from these techniques showed that the prepared nanocatalysts were in a highly crystalline form, well dispersed on T/GO, very small in size and colloidally stable. The average size of the synthesized nanocatalysts determined by TEM analysis was found to be 3.86?±?0.59?nm. With HR-TEM analysis, the atomic lattice fringes of the nanocatalysts were calculated to be 0.23?nm. After the full characterization of the prepared nanocatalysts, they were tried for the methanol oxidation reaction (MOR) and it was observed that 97.3% of the initial performance was maintained even after 1000 cycles while exhibiting great catalytic activity and stability with the help of T/GO. Thus, the arranged nanocatalysts displayed great heterogeneous catalyst characteristics for the methanol oxidation response.

One-bead-one-catalyst approach to aspartic acid-based oxidation catalyst discovery.

Project description:We report an approach to the high-throughput screening of asymmetric oxidation catalysts. The strategy is based on application of the one-bead-one-compound library approach, wherein each of our catalyst candidates is based on a peptide scaffold. For this purpose, we rely on a recently developed catalytic cycle that employs an acid-peracid shuttle. To implement our approach, we developed a compatible linker and demonstrated that the library format is amenable to screening and sequencing of catalysts employing partial Edman degradation and MALDI mass spectrometry analysis. The system was applied to the discovery (and rediscovery) of catalysts for the enantioselective oxidation of a cyclohexene derivative. The system is now poised for application to unprecedented substrate classes for asymmetric oxidation reactions.

Covalent Modification of Organo-Functionalized Graphene Oxide and its Scope as Catalyst for One-Pot Pyrazolo-Pyranopyrimidine Derivatives.

Project description:The surface of graphene oxide (GO) was modified using [3-(2-aminoethylamino)propyl]trimethoxysilane (diamine), which exhibited excellent catalytic activity for one-pot multicomponent reactions. The newly synthesized material was fully characterized by various instrumental techniques including Fourier-transfer infrared (FTIR) and Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The instrumental analysis confirmed the successful grafting of organic amine functional groups onto the graphene oxide surface. The diamine-functionalized GO proved to be an excellent catalyst for the synthesis of pyrazolo-pyranopyrimidine derivatives with 93?% yield and high selectivity. The catalytic activity almost remained unaltered up to three cycles. The newly synthesized pyrazolo-pyranopyrimidine derivatives have potential use as scaffolds in designing new pharmaceutical products.
