Decoration of glass wool with zinc (II) phthalocyanine for the photocatalytic transformation of methyl orange (2022)
Journal Article
Sindelo, A., Britton, J., Lanterna, A. E., Scaiano, J. C., & Nyokong, T. (2022). Decoration of glass wool with zinc (II) phthalocyanine for the photocatalytic transformation of methyl orange. Journal of Photochemistry and Photobiology A: Chemistry, 432, Article 114127. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jphotochem.2022.114127

Zinc phthalocyanines containing one (mono carboxy phenoxy, ZnMCPPc), four (tetra carboxy phenoxy, ZnTCPPc), and eight (tetra isophthalic acid, ZnTIPAPc) carboxyl groups were covalently conjugated to amine-functionalized glass wool (GW). The GW-Pcs we... Read More about Decoration of glass wool with zinc (II) phthalocyanine for the photocatalytic transformation of methyl orange.

Photosensitized selective semi-oxidation of tetrahydroisoquinoline: a singlet oxygen path (2022)
Journal Article
Yaghmaei, M., Villanueva, M., Martín-García, I., Alonso, F., Zhang, X., Joshi, N., …Scaiano, J. C. (2022). Photosensitized selective semi-oxidation of tetrahydroisoquinoline: a singlet oxygen path. Photochemical & Photobiological Sciences, 21(8), 1473-1479. https://doi.org/10.1007/s43630-022-00237-9

Selective semi-oxidation of tetrahydroisoquinoline (THIQ) leads to a valuable dihydroisoquinoline (DHIQ) derivative via singlet oxygen photooxidation process. Typical photosensitisers (i.e., Ru complexes) can activate the reaction even under heteroge...

Ni composite electrodes for hydrogen generation: Activation of Nb-based semiconductors (2022)
Journal Article
Franceschini, E. A., Benavente Llorente, V., & Lanterna, A. E. (2022). Ni composite electrodes for hydrogen generation: Activation of Nb-based semiconductors. International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, 47(36), 15992-16004. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijhydene.2022.03.085

The hydrogen evolution reaction depends on the accumulation of electrons on the catalytic center to enable the two-electron processes involved in water reduction. This work reports on the modification of inexpensive nickel (Ni) composite electrodes w... Read More about Ni composite electrodes for hydrogen generation: Activation of Nb-based semiconductors.
