Creating C4 Chemicals in an Environmentally Friendly Way

Angew. Chem. Int. Ed.: A proof of concept for a salt waste free carboxylation of acetylene using a pH-switch triggered by CO2 pressure. This enables the production of C4-platform chemicals like dimethyl succinate from biogas and hydrogen. The correct choice of solvent is shown to play an critical role.

Model of oxygen evolution refuted

Mater. Horiz.: RESOLV Prof. Kai S. Exner from the Department of Theoretical Inorganic Chemistry at the UDE has now been able to show that previous modeling was based on mechanisms that were too simple and therefore did not provide reliable results. Producing hydrogen from water and solar energy alone - researchers around the world are working on this sustainable path. Theoreticians support this…

Hydration at Highly Crowded Interfaces

Phys. Rev. Lett.: An unexpected "inside-out" solvation pattern was observed by studying Cs+ hydration on a Cu(111) surface. Using a combination of experimental and theoretical methods they found Cs+ ions favoring the edges of water clusters on the metal surface and the formation of water-Cs complexes with multiple Cs+ ions.
