Michaelis Menten catalysis by a T-photochromic system has been analyzed numerically. Using an appropriate set of rate constants and quantum yields, we have evidenced an enhanced photo-responsiveness at a medium light intensity: the plot of the initial rate vs....

Switching on the Metathesis Activity of Re Oxo Alkylidene Surface Sites through a Tailor-Made Silica-Alumina Support.

Angewandte Chemie (International ed. in English)

Valla M, Stadler D, Mougel V, Copéret C.
PMID: 26756446
Angew Chem Int Ed Engl. 2016 Jan 18;55(3):1124-7. doi: 10.1002/anie.201509390. Epub 2015 Dec 03.

Re oxo alkylidene surface species are putative active sites in classical heterogeneous Re-based alkene-metathesis catalysts. However, the lack of evidence for such species questions their existence and/or relevance as reaction intermediates. Using Re(O)(=CH-CH=CPh2)(OtBuF6)3(THF), the corresponding well-defined Re oxo alkylidene...

[Au5Mes5]: improved gram-scale synthesis and its use as a convenient precursor for halide-free supported gold nanoparticles.

Dalton transactions (Cambridge, England : 2003)

PMID: 26200206
Dalton Trans. 2015 Aug 28;44(32):14349-53. doi: 10.1039/c5dt01432h.

A simple one-step and gram-scale synthesis of [Au5Mes5] from AuCl3 was developed, and this molecular precursor was used to generate Au nanoparticles on SiO2 and Al2O3. While [Au5Mes5] does not react with surface silanols and is only physisorbed, its...
