Nat. Cat.: An enzyme could make a dream come true for the energy industry: It can efficiently produce hydrogen using electricity and can also generate electricity from hydrogen.
Angew. Chem. Int. Ed.: Solvation scientists from TU Dortmund University have gained new insights into the structure and properties of the protein ribonucleotide reductase in living cells.
Phys. Rev. Lett.: RESOLV member Prof. Jörg Neugebauer's study derives a chemically intuitive model for metal-water bonding that explains an unexpectedly large interaction between coadsorbed water and adsorbates and explain the origin behind the experimentally observed upper limit of H coverage well below one monolayer.
PNAS: Optimising electrochemical processes is one of the challenges in developing technologies for renewable energies. New research findings could provide assistance here.
Angew. Chem. - Int. Ed.: CO2 can be converted electrochemically into starting materials for industry. So far, however, catalysts that are stable over a long period of time have been lacking. A few tricks could solve the problem.
Angew. Chem. Int. Ed.: RESOLV member Prof. Stefan M. Huber's study presents the first application of a bidentate iodine(III)-based halogen bond donor as organocatalyst.
