  1. 6. Multicomponent Catalytic Reactions : Theoretical and Experimental Studies

    Author : Martin Pauze; Enrique Gomez Bengoa; Belen Martin-Matute; Vincent Gandon; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; C-H Activation; Quaternary Quinolinium; Organocatalyst; Transition Metal Catalyst; Umpolung Strategy; Multi-step Reactions; Mechanistic Investigation; Density Functional Theory; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Abstract : In this thesis, Density Functional Theory (DFT) methods have been applied to study the mechanisms of three different multicomponent organic reactions. Also, a new synthetic procedure for the preparation of quinolinium salts is presented, and its mechanism also studied by DFT calculations. READ MORE

  2. 7. Catalytic Asymmetric Ketone and Alkene Reductions Using Transition Metal Complexes

    Author : Klas Källström; Pher Andersson; Per Arvidsson; Jonathan Williams; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Organic chemistry; Catalytic; Asymmetric; Reductions; Ketones; Alkenes; Transition metal; Complexes; Organisk kemi;

    Abstract : This thesis contains seven papers dealing with iridium and ruthenium based catalytic asymmetric reductions, either of ketones into chiral alcohols, or olefins into chiral alkanes. The first part of the thesis describes how we have designed and evaluated new bicyclic ligands containing either N,S or N,N chelating atoms. READ MORE

    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Pyrolysis; Catalytic Cracking; Catalytic Upgrading; Biomass to Liquids; Bio-fuels; Πυρόλυση; Καταλυτική διάσπαση; Καταλυτική αναβάθμιση; Biomass to Liquids; Βιοκαύσιμα; Pyrolys; Katalytisk Krackning; Katalytisk uppgradering; Biomass to Liquids; biobränslen; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik; Energy Technology; Energiteknik; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Materials Science and Engineering;

    Abstract : The current societal needs for fuels and chemical commodities strongly depend on fossil resources. This dependence can lead to economic instabilities, political problems and insecurity of supplies. READ MORE

  4. 9. Catalytic Incineration of CO and VOC Emissions over Supported Metal Oxide Catalysts

    Author : Per-Olof Larsson; Tillämpad biokemi; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Titania; Ceria; Manganese oxide; Copper oxide; VOC; CO; Ethanol; Ethyl acetate; Metal oxide catalysts; Catalytic combustion; Catalytic incineration; Alumina.; Chemical technology and engineering; Kemiteknik och kemisk teknologi; Fysicumarkivet A:1999:Larsson;

    Abstract : Catalytic incineration is one of the methods to reduce the emissions of CO and VOCs. Low operation temperature and low catalyst cost are essential parameters for catalytic incinerators. Pt/Al2O3 catalysts are frequently used today, but the cheaper metal oxide catalysts can be very competitive if comparable overall activity is obtained. READ MORE
