Hydrogen spillover assisted by oxygenate molecules over nonreducible oxides
Spontaneous migration of H-atoms from metal particles to a nonreducible oxide support is generally limited by thermodynamics. Here, small oxygenate molecules are found to act as effective H-carriers to promote this process and lead to much improved ...

Single-pass transformation of syngas into ethanol with high selectivity by triple tandem catalysis
Direct synthesis of ethanol from non-petroleum carbon resources via syngas (CO/H2) is a highly attractive but challenging target. Here, the authors report a triple tandem catalytic system for single-pass conversion of syngas into ethanol with selectivity

Highly Cooperative Tetrametallic Ruthenium-μ-Oxo-μ-Hydroxo Catalyst for the Alcohol Oxidation Reaction [PDF]
The tetrametallic ruthenium-oxo-hydroxo-hydride complex {[(PCy3)(CO)RuH]4(μ4-O)(μ3-OH)(μ2-OH)} (1) was synthesized in two steps from the monomeric complex (PCy3)(CO)RuHCl (2).

Synthesis of α-hydroxy-β,β-difluoro-γ-ketoesters via [3,3]sigmatropic rearrangements [PDF]
Readily available γ,γ-difluorinated allylic alcohols obtained from trifluoroethanol were esterified efficiently. Exposure to strong base (LDA) afforded the ester enolates, in which chelation both controlled configuration and stabilised against ...

Direct conversion of methane to formaldehyde and CO on B2O3 catalysts
Partial oxidation of methane to value-added C1 products remains challenging due to the favorable formation of fully-oxidized CO2. Here, the authors show supported B2O3 catalysts with tri-coordinated BO3 units as the active site are highly selective in ...
