Abstract:
Confinement of nanometallic Pd within the core of a hyperthermophilic ferritin cage (from Pyrococcus furiosus) is reported. The resulting nanostructured hybrid catalysts can be used for highly specific aerobic oxidation of alcohols in water.

Reduction of Alkenes: Asymmetric Catalytic Hydrogenation
The metal catalyst used can be either heterogeneous or homogeneous. When hydrogenation of an alkene generates a chiral center, a pair of enantiomeric products is expected to form. However, an enantiomeric excess of one of the products can be facilitated using an enantioselective reaction or an...
