    (Cambridge : RSC, 2018) Sahoo, Basudev; Kreyenschulte, Carsten; Agostini, Giovanni; Lund, Henrik; Bachmann, Stephan; Scalone, Michelangelo; Junge, Kathrin; Beller, Matthias
    The authors regret that the term “(iso)quinolones” was used throughout the article, including the title, when the correct term should be “(iso)quinolines”. The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.

    Development of Highly Stable Low Ni Content Catalyst for Dry Reforming of CH4-Rich Feedstocks
    (Weinheim : WILEY-VCH Verlag, 2020) Ha, Quan Luu Manh; Lund, Henrik; Kreyenschulte, Carsten; Bartling, Stephan; Atia, Hanan; Vuong, Than Huyen; Wohlrab, Sebastian; Armbruster, Udo
    Highly active and coking-resistant Ni catalysts suited for the dry reforming of CH4-rich gases (70 vol %, e. g. biogas or sour natural gas) were prepared starting from a Mg-rich Mg−Al hydrotalcite support precursor. Calcination at 1000 °C yields two phases, MgO and MgAl2O4 spinel. Complexation-deposition of Ni with citric acid on the preformed support as well as lanthanum addition yields a catalyst with remarkably low carbon accumulation over 100 h on stream attributed to both high Ni dispersion and preferred interactions of Ni with MgO on MgAl2O4. © 2020 The Authors.

    A robust iron catalyst for the selective hydrogenation of substituted (iso)quinolones
    (Cambridge : RSC, 2018) Sahoo, Basudev; Kreyenschulte, Carsten; Agostini, Giovanni; Lund, Henrik; Bachmann, Stephan; Scalone, Michelangelo; Junge, Kathrin; Beller, Matthias
    By applying N-doped carbon modified iron-based catalysts, the controlled hydrogenation of N-heteroarenes, especially (iso)quinolones, is achieved. Crucial for activity is the catalyst preparation by pyrolysis of a carbon-impregnated composite, obtained from iron(ii) acetate and N-aryliminopyridines. As demonstrated by TEM, XRD, XPS and Raman spectroscopy, the synthesized material is composed of Fe(0), Fe3C and FeNx in a N-doped carbon matrix. The decent catalytic activity of this robust and easily recyclable Fe-material allowed for the selective hydrogenation of various (iso)quinoline derivatives, even in the presence of reducible functional groups, such as nitriles, halogens, esters and amides. For a proof-of-concept, this nanostructured catalyst was implemented in the multistep synthesis of natural products and pharmaceutical lead compounds as well as modification of photoluminescent materials. As such this methodology constitutes the first heterogeneous iron-catalyzed hydrogenation of substituted (iso)quinolones with synthetic importance.

    Selective cobalt nanoparticles for catalytic transfer hydrogenation of N-heteroarenes
    (Cambridge : RSC, 2017) Chen, Feng; Sahoo, Basudev; Kreyenschulte, Carsten; Lund, Henrik; Zeng, Min; He, Lin; Junge, Kathrin; Beller, Matthias
    Nitrogen modified cobalt catalysts supported on carbon were prepared by pyrolysis of the mixture generated from cobalt(ii) acetate in aqueous solution of melamine or waste melamine resins, which are widely used as industrial polymers. The obtained nanostructured materials catalyze the transfer hydrogenation of N-heteroarenes with formic acid in the absence of base. The optimal Co/Melamine-2@C-700 catalyst exhibits high activity and selectivity for the dehydrogenation of formic acid into molecular hydrogen and carbon dioxide and allows for the reduction of diverse N-heteroarenes including substrates featuring sensitive functional groups.
