Isolated atoms featuring unique reactivity are at the heart of enzymatic and homogeneous
catalysts. In contrast, although the concept has long existed, single-atom heterogeneous …

Single atom catalysis (SAC) is a recent discipline of heterogeneous catalysis for which a
single atom on a surface is able to carry out various catalytic reactions. A kind of revolution …

Vitrimers constitute a fascinating class of polymer materials that make the link between the
historically opposed 3D networks (thermosets) and linear polymers (thermoplastics). Their …

Since its early days, olefin metathesis has been in the focus of scientific discussions and
technology development. While heterogeneous olefin metathesis catalysts based on …

Supported noble metal nanoclusters and single-metal-site catalysts are inclined to
aggregate into particles, driven by the high surface-to-volume ratio. Herein, we report a …

Metathesis of double bonds has enabled innovation in a broad range of fields: from
materials science to medicine. However, this chemistry has largely focused on alkenes …

The structural characterization of supported molecular catalysts is challenging due to the low
density of active sites and the presence of several organic/organometallic surface groups …

Surface organometallic chemistry (SOMC) is an established concept, associated with
specific tools for the characterization of a well-defined single-site catalysts. Primarily …

The direct construction of functionalized diphosphine ligands from P4 is a highly valuable
but challenging transformation. In this work, a simple method has been developed for the …

Single-site organolanthanum complexes supported on mesoporous silica nanoparticles, La
{C (SiHMe2) 3} n@ MSNs, catalyze the ring-opening hydroboration reaction of aliphatic and …
