A New Approach to Molecular Hydrodesulfurization Catalysts: Allyl-capped Trialkylphosphoranimide-bridged Late First-row Transition Metal Clusters
DownloadFall 2017
A series of new trialkylphosphoranimide allyl-capped clusters [M(ƞ3-allyl)(NPR)3]2, (M = Fe, Co or Ni, R = Et, tBu or Ph) were synthesized. The nickel dimers [Ni(ƞ3-allyl)(NPR3)]2, R = Et, Ph are diamagnetic and have been fully characterized using NMR spectroscopy, X-ray crystallography,...

Selective ring opening of naphthenic molecules is a preferred reaction to increase cetane number of fuels, and it should result in products with no loss in molecular weight and longer alkyl side chains. Benzocyclopentane (indan) ring opening was studied under hydrogen atmospheric pressure at 609...

Activity, selectivity and stability enhancements often observed in bimetallic catalysts make them an inseparable part of today’s chemical industry. However, it is usually problematic to understand the real interactions resulting in such improvements due to the lack of control over the bimetallic...

Empowering the Base Metals: Rational Design of Homogeneous Catalysts for Hydrotreatment, and Reduction of Organic Unsaturates
DownloadFall 2013
Hydrocarbon-soluble, low-coordinate, phosphoranimide-supported complexes of the base metals (iron, cobalt and nickel) were developed and evaluated for a range of stoichiometric and catalytic bond-forming and bond-breaking transformations. An unprecedented family of tetrametallic clusters of Co(I)...

The beneficial feature of the application of natural gas in the automotive industry is the lowest carbon content of any fossil fuel, which results in the lowest CO2 emissions. On the other hand, the concern of atmospheric pollution due to methane emissions from natural-gas vehicles (NGV) engines...

Spring 2018
A series of phosphoranimide-supported first-row transition metal clusters were prepared, structurally characterized, and investigated for catalytic hydrogenolysis of carbon-heteroatom bonds. Homoleptic heterocubane clusters, as well as two-dimensional bi- and tetranuclear compounds of manganese,...

Inhalable nanoparticles in lung cancer treatment; efficacy, safety, distribution and nanoparticle-macrophage interactions
DownloadFall 2012
In 2002, lung cancer was responsible for 17.6% of the total worldwide deaths from cancer. Beyond the three traditional forms of cancer treatment, surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy, targeted drug delivery therapy has shown to be a potential treatment option. The design of a successful...
