Modification of chiral dimethyl tartrate through transesterification : immobilisation on POSS and enantioselectivity reversion in Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation [PDF]
Modification of dimethyl tartrate has been investigated through transesterification with aminoalcohols to provide reactive functionalities for the covalent bonding of chiral tartrate to polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes.

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 ...

Biosynthesized Ag/α-Al2O3 catalyst for ethylene epoxidation: the influence of silver precursors [PDF]
Biosynthesized Ag/α-Al2O3 catalysts toward ethylene epoxidation were prepared with Cinnamomum camphoratrees (CC) extract using AgNO3, silver–ammonia complex ([Ag (NH3)2]+) and silver–ethylenediamine complex ([Ag(en)2]+) as the silver precursors.

Efficient Ru–Fe catalyzed selective hydrogenolysis of carboxylic acids to alcoholic chemicals† [PDF]
Supported bimetallic Ru–Fe catalysts were prepared using a step-deposition–reduction method. The selective hydrogenolysis of acetic acid to ethanol was investigated as a reaction, which is considered to be related to the transformation of biomass-derived
