The Critical Materials Innovation Hub seeks to add research projects through an open call announced in 2024 for projects to begin during 2026.
This discovery proves that early transition metals can effectively perform challenging C-H bond functionalization, rivaling established, expensive late-transition metal (Ir, Rh) systems. It opens new paths and design principles for strong-bond activation using highly electrophilic, surface-stabilized active sites in alterative to critical noble metals.
The study establishes the structural origin of C-H borylation activity in zeolite-supported La complexes. The combined SSNMR and ML-MD approach offers a general framework for identifying catalytically relevant structures.
Tailored deep eutectic solvents provide a tunable, low‑volatility alternative to conventional lixiviants for rare‑earth recovery from ion‑adsorption clays.
Localized confinement in mesopores increases the rate and selectivity of Ru-catalyzed C–C bond cleavage in polyolefin hydrogenolysis by influencing polymer chains' contact with active sites and their conformations.
