Abstract:
Developing earth-abundant non-noble electrocatalysts with high performance is significant but challenging for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in seawater. Herein, a hierarchical electrocatalyst, NiFe-layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanosheet anchored CoS2 nanowires supported on carbon cloth, is developed for efficient OER electrocatalysis in alkaline seawater, demanding a low overpotential of 256 mV to drive a current density of 100 mA cm-2, along with favorable catalytic durability for at least 48 h with negligible decay.

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...
