The unidirectional growth of materials to form nanowires or nanotubes has attracted
enormous interest in recent years. Within the different classes of tubes made of organic or …

Since their discovery, carbon nanotubes have attracted the attention of many a scientist
around the world. This extraordinary interest stems from their outstanding structural …

This review analyses the literature from the early 1990s until the beginning of 2003 and
covers the use of carbon nanotubes (CNT) and nanofibers as catalysts and catalysts …

Enantioselective catalytic reactions in which the chirality of an asymmetric catalyst induces
the preferred formation of a given product enantiomer have been one of the most important …

Limited natural resources and an increasing demand for enantiomerically pure compounds
render catalysis and especially heterogeneous asymmetric catalysis a key technology. The …

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have many unique physical, mechanical, and electronic
properties. These distinct properties may be exploited such that they can be used for …

The addition of cyanide to a carbonyl compound to form a cyanohydrin is one of the
fundamental carbon-carbon bond forming reactions in organic chemistry1 and has …

The development of high-performance and cost-effective catalysts for the oxygen reduction
reaction (ORR) is essential for the advancement of fuel cells. In this work, three different …

Abstract In this Progress Report, we update covalent chemical strategies commonly used for
the focused functionalization of single‐walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) surfaces. In recent …

In this work, we demonstrate cooperative asymmetric catalysis by a metal–organic
framework (MOF) as exemplified in the context of catalyzing cyanation of aldehydes with a …
