Skeletal ruthenium catalyst in asymmetric hydrogenation

Conclusions Skeletal ruthenium catalyst, modified with D-(+)-tartaric acid, leads to the asymmetric hydrogenation of the carbonyl group in acetoacetic ester.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 10, p. 2361, October, 1972.     

Adsorption of Pd, Ni, and Cu ions on anode-oxidized carbon fiber materials

The anodic oxidation of the carbon felt Carbonetcalon results in the formation of surface defects which serve as centers of strong adsorption of Pd^II, Ni^II, and Cu^II ions. The electrochemical reduction of adsorbed ions makes it possible to obtain metallic catalysts, which undergo multiple redox cycles without loss of metal. The catalysts are characterized by high dispersity of the reduced phase, high adsorption capacity with respect to hydrogen, and 100% selectivity in hydrogenation of acetophenone.

Synthesis of hydrocarbons from CO and H2 on supported nickel-palladium catalysts

The use of an Ni-Pd/Al₂O₃ catalyst in the synthesis of C₁-C₄ hydrocarbons from CO and H₂ permits us to increase the selectivity and total yield of these products by a factor of 1.5–2.0 relative to the corresponding nickel and palladium catalysts. The optimal temperatures and CO/H₂ ratios for obtaining hydrocarbons were determined. A structure was proposed for the active sites of the bimetallic catalyst.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 7, pp. 1689–1691, July, 1991.     

Kinetics of the electrochemical oxidation of 1,1-bis-hydroperoxy-4-methylcyclohexane on platinum

The electrochemical synthesis of 3,12-dimethyl-7,8,15,16-tetraoxadispiro[5.2.5.2]hexadecane (1,2,4,5-tetraoxane) from 1,1-bis-hydroperoxy-4-methylcyclohexane on platinum electrode in a cell with separated and unseparated cathode and anode space in an aprotic solvent is conducted.

Electrochemical oxidation of tetracycline on a boron doped diamond electrode within the stability potentials of water

Electrochemical oxidation of tetracycline on a boron doped diamond electrode within the stability potentials of water was studied in order to develop an approach for the purification of waste water containing medicinal agents. Cyclic voltammetry, HPLC, and high resolution mass spectrometry were used to establish that in the electrochemical oxidation process, tetracycline adds one oxygen atom to further form organic compounds with molecular weights higher than that of tetracycline. It was found that tetracycline in this region of potentials can be almost completely deactivated without its mineralization.     

Electrochemical degradation of tetracycline

Oxidation of tetracycline® in an electrochemical cell with separated cathodic and anodic compartments on smooth platinum was studied. The extent of electrochemical degradation of tetracycline and the energy consumption for eliminating the biological activity of its aqueous solutions were estimated.
