Engineering Semiconductor Quantum Dots for Selectivity Switch on High-Performance Heterogeneous Coupling Photosynthesis
Semiconductor-based photoredox catalysis is an innovative strategy for sustainable organic transformation. However, precise control of selectivity for such organic synthesis by steering radical conversion is difficult. This work demonstrates the precise selectivity switch on high-performance selective heterogeneous coupling photosynthesis of a C–C bond or a C–N bond, with hydrogen production over Ni-oxo clusters and single…

Conversion of glucose to fructose over Sn and Ga-doped zeolite Y in methanol and water media
Zeolite Y was used as a support for the synthesis of Sn and Ga doped zeolites aimed at the isomerization of glucose to fructose. Though these materials are inactive in water, they are active in methanol and we could ascertain a reaction pathway involving a hydride shift for the interconversion of glucose to fructose and…
