Researchers at ITbM, Nagoya University developed a new nickel catalyst with a "Kabuto-like ... and readily available phenol derivatives, to form alpha-arylketones, which are found in many ...

proving particularly useful in coupling reactions that form carbon-carbon or carbon-nitrogen bonds. The most popular catalyst for these reactions is bis(1,5-cyclooctadiene)nickel (Ni(COD ...

Using a light-activated catalyst, researchers have unlocked ... oxidation state of nickel that can readily form the desired bond. Using a photocatalyst to effectively expand the possible oxidation ...

Practically speaking, the cost of nickel in its elemental form is roughly 2,000 times lower ... nickel has proved to be an extremely effective catalyst for cross-coupling. Cross-coupling reactions ...

This coupling displaces the imine’s nitrogen in the form of ammonia ... the researchers settled on a champion catalyst that contain nickel bound to a triphosphine ligand. The reaction worked ...

That would include metals, such as nickel." Holland said their ... they combine on the catalyst with protons from water, to form a hydrogen molecule (H2). This system was so robust that it kept ...

Earth-abundant metals like nickel could offer cost-effective alternatives, but they typically bind CO too strongly, causing catalyst deactivation. This occurs because the same electronic properties ...

They found that the hydrogenation of vanillin into 2-methoxy-4-methylphenol (MMP) showed a peak productivity with the Ni/MS-4.8 catalyst, which had intermediate-sized particles.

At ITbM, Nagoya University, researchers developed a new nickel catalyst with a "Kabuto-like ... and readily available phenol derivatives, to form alpha-arylketones, which are found in many ...

To confirm their understanding of how the catalysts worked together to ... the complex was unable to form the product. Further electrochemical experiments confirmed that the model nickel complex was ...

Nanocrystals and nickel catalyst substantially improve light-based ... they combine on the catalyst with protons from water, to form a hydrogen molecule (H2). This system was so robust that ...
