Since the industrial revolution, the rapid growth and development of global industries have
depended largely upon the utilization of coal-derived chemicals, and more recently, the …

Electrocatalytic nanocarbon (EN) is a class of material receiving intense interest as a
potential replacement for expensive, metal-based electrocatalysts for energy conversion and …

A major impediment to Li–O2 battery commercialization is the low discharge capacities
resulting from electronically insulating Li2O2 film growth on carbon electrodes. Redox …

Increasing levels of CO2 in the atmosphere is a problem that must be urgently resolved if the
rise in current global temperatures is to be slowed. Chemically reducing CO2 into …

Generation of clean energy in a viable manner demands efficient and sustainable catalysts.
One prospective method of clean energy generation is the electrochemical hydrogen …

Triarylamine-substituted benzimidazoliums (BI+–PhNAr2), new electron donor–acceptor
dyad molecules, were synthesized. Their photocatalytic properties for reductive organic …

We report an efficient visible light-driven CO2 reduction system that functions in water and
without any noble metal nor rare materials. Using the cobalt complex [Co (qpy)(OH2) 2] …

Biomimetic NAD (P) H-type organic hydride donors have recently been advocated as
potential candidates to act as metal-free catalysts for fuel-forming reactions such as the …

Developing efficient photocatalysts that perform multi electron redox reactions is critical to
achieving solar energy conversion. One can reach this goal by developing systems which …

Hydride transfer (HT) is a fundamental step in a wide range of reaction pathways, including
those mediated by dihydropyridinates (DHP− s). Coordination of ions directly to the pyridine …
