The aim of the book “Oxygen atom transfer reactions” is to outline some recent developments in the studies of oxygen atom transfer mechanisms in catalytic oxidation reactions based on several ...

Green plants produce oxygen from water using a catalytic technique powered by sunlight. Scientists have now shown the importance of a hydrogen-bonding water network to that process -- which is the ...

The field of electrocatalysis is dependent upon the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in many ways, which explains the enormous amount of research that has been conducted on it. In an aqueous acidic ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Water electrolysis has been regarded as an environmentally friendly route to hydrogen gas production. However, efficiency of water catalysis is severely limited by poor kinetics ...
