Abstract:
Pt-supported on ZIF-8 derived porous carbon (CZIF8) and nitrogen-doped multi-walled carbon nanotubes (NCNT) composites was prepared by pyrolysis process and chemical reduction. The electrochemical characterization and morphological analysis of composites was measured by cyclic voltammetry (CV), chronoamperometry, transmission electron microscope (TEM), and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). These results indicate that the Pt-NCNT@CZIF8 nanocomposite showed electrochemically superior properties to methanol oxidation reaction and the higher electrochemical surface area (ECSA). Also, ZIF-8 derived carbon and modified the CNTs was thought to enhance the effective area of the platinum deposition site.

Phase I Reactions: Oxidation of Carbon-Heteroatom and Miscellaneous Systems
In carbon-nitrogen systems, aliphatic and aromatic amines can undergo oxidative reactions. Secondary and tertiary amines, like those found in tricyclic antidepressants, can undergo N-dealkylation, a process that involves the oxidation of the alkyl group. In addition, oxidative...
