Download or read book Redistribution Reactions written by J.C. Lockhart and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Redistribution Reactions is a comprehensive coverage of redistribution phenomena for the entire Periodic Table. This book is organized into two sections encompassing 10 chapters that tackle the concepts of structural reorganization. Part I provides first an overview of redistribution reactions, followed by a discussion on a series of techniques capable of detecting all compounds in a redistribution reaction, including electronic, vibrational, and nuclear magnetic spectroscopy, X-ray crystallography, mass spectroscopy, polarography, chromatography, and the use of phase diagram. Part II is devoted to the redistribution reactions of the elements under Periodic Group headings with available kinetics or thermodynamics information. This part also presents valuable structural information of the group elements, such as their vibrational frequencies and chemical shifts. This work will be of convenient reference for researchers already working on redistribution and for a more general range of research workers in inorganic chemistry who require information on scrambling for a specific element.
Download or read book Hydrogen Transfer Reactions written by Gabriela Guillena and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-09-27 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The series Topics in Current Chemistry Collections presents critical reviews from the journal Topics in Current Chemistry organized in topical volumes. The scope of coverage is all areas of chemical science including the interfaces with related disciplines such as biology, medicine and materials science. The goal of each thematic volume is to give the non-specialist reader, whether in academia or industry, a comprehensive insight into an area where new research is emerging which is of interest to a larger scientific audience. Each review within the volume critically surveys one aspect of that topic and places it within the context of the volume as a whole. The most significant developments of the last 5 to 10 years are presented using selected examples to illustrate the principles discussed. The coverage is not intended to be an exhaustive summary of the field or include large quantities of data, but should rather be conceptual, concentrating on the methodological thinking that will allow the non-specialist reader to understand the information presented. Contributions also offer an outlook on potential future developments in the field.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the oil embargo, in the winter 1973174, parts of Western Europe present ed an almost war-like aspect on Saturdays and Sundays: no traffic on the high ways, no crowds at ski resorts and other weekend entertainment places, no gaso line at the pumps. Living and teaching then in that part of the world, and discussing the situa tion with our students, we came to the conclusion that it would be timely to col lect the fine chemistry already known at the time in the field of conversion of coal to gasoline and other chemicals, and by this way help to draw the attention to this important alternative to crude oil. The idea of this book was born. The energy shock of the early seventies has been healthy and of great conse quences in chemistry. Large amounts of research money have been put to work since, and our knowledge of the possibilities and limitations of coal-based chemistry has increased enormously. During several years it appeared inap propriate to write a monograph about a topic which was in the midst of such an impetuous development. Nevertheless, we collected, and critically selected, the upcoming work as it appeared in the literature, and also tried to provide some modest input ourselves. Now, ten years later, the situation seems to be settled to a certain degree.

Download or read book Homogeneous Hydrogenation written by P.A. Chaloner and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Homogeneous hydrogenation is one of the most thoroughly studied fields of homogeneous catalysis. The results of these studies have proved to be most important for an understanding of the underlying principles of the activation of small molecules by transition metal complexes. During the past three decades homogeneous hydrogenation has found widespread application in organic chemistry, including the production of important pharmaceuticals, especially where a sophisticated degree of selectivity is required. This volume presents a general account of the main principles and applications of homogeneous hydrogenation by transition metal complexes. Special attention is devoted to the mechanisms by which these processes occur, and the role of the recently discovered complexes of molecular hydrogen is described. Sources of hydrogen, other than H2, are also considered (transfer hydrogenation). The latest achievements in highly stereoselective hydrogenations have made possible many new applications in organic synthesis. These applications are documented by giving details of the reduction of important unsaturated substrates (alkenes, alkynes, aldehydes and ketones, nitrocompounds, etc.). Hydrogenation in biphasic and phase transfer catalyzed systems is also described. Finally, a discussion of the biochemical routes of H2 activation highlights the similarities and differences in performing hydrogenation in both natural and synthetic systems. For researchers working in the fields of homogeneous catalysis, especially in areas such as pharmaceuticals, plastics and fine chemicals.

This book was released on 2001-11-30 with total page 556 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: hemistry is the science about breaking and forming of bonds between atoms. One of the most important processes for organic chemistry is breaking bonds C–H, as well as C–C in various compounds, and primarily, in hydrocarbons. Among hydrocarbons, saturated hydrocarbons, alkanes (methane, ethane, propane, hexane etc. ), are especially attractive as substrates for chemical transformations. This is because, on the one hand, alkanes are the main constituents of oil and natural gas, and consequently are the principal feedstocks for chemical industry. On the other hand, these substances are known to be the less reactive organic compounds. Saturated hydrocarbons may be called the “noble gases of organic chemistry” and, if so, the first representative of their family – methane – may be compared with extremely inert helium. As in all comparisons, this parallel between noble gases and alkanes is not fully accurate. Indeed the transformations of alkanes, including methane, have been known for a long time. These reactions involve the interaction with molecular oxygen from air (burning – the main source of energy!), as well as some mutual interconversions of saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbons. However, all these transformations occur at elevated temperatures (higher than 300–500 °C) and are usually characterized by a lack of selectivity. The conversion of alkanes into carbon dioxide and water during burning is an extremely valuable process – but not from a chemist viewpoint.

Download or read book Investigation of Active Sites and Reaction Networks in Catalytic Hydrogen Production written by Sittichai Natesakhawat and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Steam reforming (SR) of hydrocarbons and water-gas shift (WGS) are of importance in hydrogen generation technologies due to recent attention focusing on fuel cells. Current research efforts have focused on catalyst development to improve activity, selectivity, and stability under a realistic range of operating conditions. Although coke formation is a major concern for Ni-based catalysts when used for hydrocarbon steam reforming, their low cost and long-proven performance warrants further investigation. Moreover, hydrogen and fuel cell technologies will greatly benefit from innovative high-temperature shift (HTS) catalyst formulations that can overcome some serious drawbacks (i.e., low activity at low temperatures, sintering of magnetite (Fe3O4), a pyrophoric nature, and the harmful effects of Cr6+ on human health). In this Ph. D. study, lanthanide-promoted Ni/Al2O3 catalysts and Fe-based catalysts promoted with first row transition metals were synthesized by a modified sol-gel technique and a coprecipitation method, respectively. The effect of synthesis variables on the catalyst properties (i.e., BET surface area, reducibility, crystallite size, crystal structure, oxidation states, adsorption/desorption behavior, and surface intermediates during the reaction) and, in turn, on the catalytic performance in SR of lower alkanes and the WGS reaction has been investigated. Catalysts were characterized by BET surface area and pore size distribution measurements, temperature-programmed desorption/reduction/oxidation (TPD/TPR/TPO), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS), static chemisorption, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The introduction of small amounts (2 wt%) of Ce and Yb in sol-gel Ni/Al2O3 catalysts improves SR activity significantly by enhancing Ni surface area, reducibility of Ni species, and Ni sintering resistance. In addition, the incorporation of Ce in Ni/Al2O3 catalysts results in the reduction of carbon dissolution/diffusion through nickel crystallites, thus preventing catalyst deactivation by coke formation. Formulations of highly active and Cr-free HTS catalysts can be achieved by adding both Al and Cu. The activity of Fe-based catalysts is strongly related to catalyst reducibility, magnetite crystallite size, and redox characteristics. More detailed characterization has provided additional insights into phase transformations, surface intermediates, and reaction/deactivation mechanisms, giving further evidence of the modification of the properties and performance of catalysts through optimized synthesis.

Download or read book Catalysis written by John R. Anderson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our understanding of catalytic reactions exists at various levels which are mainly defined from detailed knowledge of reaction mechanism. When viewed in terms of the stoi chiometric reaction equation, most catalytic reactions are complex processes which occur via a sequence of elementary (i. e. irreducible) steps, and the elucidation ofthese elementary steps and the identification of a rate determining step (if one exists) constitutes the traditional approach to the problem of mechanism. The term "traditional" is not used here in a pejorative sense since mechanistic knowledge of this sort makes an important contribution to catalyst design, improvement, and optimization. This is the field which is discussed by Professor R. L. Burwell in Chapter 1 where the very wide range of useful approaches and techniques is made apparent, even when one is restricted to quasi-steady state conditions. Techniques which depend on observations under non steady state conditions (i. e. relaxation methods) have also been used in mechanistic studies, increasingly so in recent years. This topic is discussed in detail by Professor K. Tamaru in Chapter 2. At a deeper level of understanding, one may seek to enquire how an elementary reaction proceeds in terms of movement in a multicoordinate space where the variables define atomic positions and energy. This is a problem of great complexity even in relatively simple cases. Nevertheless, despite the problems some progress is being made, and this and allied topics are discussed in Chapter 3 by Professor G. L. Haller and Dr. G. W. Coulston.
