Autocatalysis and organocatalysis with synthetic structures [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2009 The discovery of ribozymes led to the proposal of an RNA world, where a single type of molecule was supposedly capable of self-replication and chemical catalysis. We show here that both autocatalysis and organocatalysis can be engineered into a synthetic structure.

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions have emerged as one of the most critical drivers of climate change; this is primarily due to high concentrations and long atmospheric life of carbon dioxide (CO2). For a significant amount of time, various biological processes such as microalgal cultivation, cyanobacterial systems, photosynthetic microorganisms ...

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.Why add another catalyst when the product itself holds the power to catalyze its own formation? Autocatalysis in synthetic chemistry enhances reaction efficiency and uncovers novel catalytic behavior across both closed‐shell and open‐shell systems, expanding reactivity and enabling innovative design strategies.

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.Glycerol ethoxylate (GEO), a branched ethylene glycol derivative, both toughens commercial PLLA and accelerates its chemical recycling to L‐lactide. The lead sample, containing 10 wt.% GEO, shows 9x higher elongation at break and 6x higher tensile toughness than pure PLLA. The GEO–PLLA samples are efficiently chemically recycled to L‐lactide, even when

A recursive microfluidic platform to explore the emergence of chemical evolution
Beilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2017 We propose that a chemically agnostic approach to explore the origin of life, using an automated recursive platform based on droplet microfluidics, could be used to induce artificial chemical evolution by iterations of growth, speciation, selection, and ...

Nonlinear Active Site Dynamic Behavior Over In Situ Generated Working Zeolites
Chemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.The methoxymethyl mechanism over α, β, and γ site ensembles and the dynamic site‐interconversion mechanism reduce the induction period of propylene formation. The methoxymethyl mechanism acts on site ensemble α generating surface methoxy species (SMS), which, through the dynamic site‐interconversion mechanism, lead to SMS on site ensembles β and γ that

Microphase assisted "autocatalysis"
, 2018 The mathematical model developed in this study considered reaction, crystallization, and microphase processes simultaneously to describe "autocatalytic" microphase action more effectively. Simulations were performed to determine the effect of crystal growth rates, nucleation rates and the initial crystal size distribution on the overall reaction rate ...

Autocatalysis and Blood Coagulation [PDF]
Nature, 1939 THE autocatalytic behaviour of blood coagulation is thought, by several authors, to be due to the autocatalytic formation of thrombin from its precursor prothrombin1. So far, thrombin seems similar to the enzymes studied by Northrop and co-workers2.
