Enantioselective Hydrogenation of Olefins using Commercially Available Pd/C. Chiral Heterogeneous Catalyst Applicable for High-Throughput Screening

Chiral tandem modifiers: highly efficient cinchonidine-derivative modifiers at low concentrations for the enantioselective hydrogenation of (E)-2,3-diphenylpropenoic acid over Pd/C

Chiral tandem modifiers linking two or three cinchonidine molecules at the 2′-position of the quinoline ring are highly effective at low concentrations for the enantioselective hydrogenation of PCA over Pd/C.

The highly efficient and selective dicarbonylation of acetylene catalysed by palladium nanosheets supported on activated carbon

An ultrathin Pd nanosheet-supported heterogeneous catalyst, Pd_CO/AC, with exposed (111) crystal plane was synthesized, and it shows superior catalytic reactivity (∼43.8%) and selectivity (∼99.0%) for the dicarbonylation of acetylene and CO.
