Unlike well‐defined homogenous metal complex catalysts, no distinct heterogeneous catalysts are available for hydrogen auto‐transfer or borrowing hydrogen methodologies. Alternatively, a variety of noble metals, base metals, and bimetallic systems supported on various metal oxides are scrutinized for this purpose, mainly by modulating the ability o...

Hybrid polyoxometalate derived in situ carbon encapsulated molybdenum phosphide (HPOM-MoP/C) exhibits excellent HER activity in a wide pH range.

The earth-abundant transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have emerged as an effective catalyst to improve the catalytic performance of heterogeneous catalysis, especially in the organic functional group conversion chemistry. The layered...

Development of selective and efficient reusable catalytic systems for sustainable chemical production under benign conditions is attractive and received much attention. Herein, we report a rod-shaped octadecyl trimethylammonium functionalized Keggin-type polyoxometalate [PMO12O40] hybrids (OTA-POM) as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for selecti...

Design of novel functional periodic mesoporous organosilica with molecular level control finds applications in several fields of energy and environmental research including adsorption, catalysis, nanotechnology, and energy harvesting. Herein we present a melamine (1,3,5-triazine) functionalized periodic mesoporous silica (MPMO) by self-assembly of...

Within the green chemistry context, heterogeneous catalysis for the synthesis of N‐heterocycles from renewable resources using non‐precious metals has garnered great interest in terms of economic and environmental perspectives. Herein, we present a triazine functional hierarchical mesoporous organic polymer (HMOP) with nanorod morphology together w...

A simple and efficient procedure was developed for the preparation of a variety of aryl, hetero aryl and alkyl N-sulfinylimines (2b-2u) with excellent yields (85-94%) using tungstophosphoric acid as catalyst. Also, this new synthetic protocol features high conversion, shorter reaction time, a straight forward and simple work up procedure. Catalyst...

Metal nanoparticles in pristine form without any stabilizing agents and free from agglomeration are very critical for their function and diverse catalytic applications. With the goal to accomplish a molecularly defined Pd-based heterogeneous C-C bond forming catalyst, highly ordered mesoporous nitrogen-rich carbon nitride (MCN) polymers with extend...
