Abstract: An electrolytic system and method of manufacturing white phosphorus.

Abstract: Disclosed is an electrochemical method for continuous regeneration of a PtIV oxidant to furnish overall electrochemical methane oxidation. Cl-adsorbed Pt electrodes catalyze facile oxidation of PtII to PtIV without concomitant methanol oxidation. Exploiting this electrochemistry, the PtII/IV ratio in solution is maintained via in situ monitoring of the solution potential coupled with dynamic modulation of the electric current. Remarkably, this method leads to sustained methane oxidation catalysis with ˜70% selectivity for methanol.

Abstract: Systems and methods for electrochemically producing chemical products are provided. In certain cases, the systems and methods described herein are capable of producing chemical products such as hydrogen peroxide in solutions with relatively low concentrations of electrolyte or other dissolved species at high efficiencies and/or low energetic cost. In some cases, redox mediators are used to spatially decouple direct electrochemical processes from the production of the chemical product.

In certain cases, the systems and methods described herein are capable of producing chemical products such as hydrogen peroxide in solutions with relatively low concentrations of electrolyte or other dissolved species at high efficiencies and/or low energetic cost. In some cases, redox mediators are used to temporally decouple direct electrochemical processes from the production of the chemical product.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods for the electrochemical oxidation of a C—H bond in a compound to give a C—O bond or C—S bond. The oxidation of methane to methanol is described, as well as an electrochemical cell for performing the reaction.

Abstract: Disclosed are surface immobilized (electro)catalysts that may be prepared by a condensation reaction that generates an aromatic unit that is robust to acid and base and elevated temperatures. Among their many desirable characteristics, the catalysts are far less prone to the bimolecular deactivation pathways commonly observed for homogeneous catalysts, and may be used in solvents with a range of polarities and dielectric strengths. The catalysts are suitable for a wide array of thermal catalytic reactions (polymerization, oxidation, hydrogenation, cross-coupling etc.) and as anodes and/or cathodes in fuel cells, electrolyzers, and in batteries and supercapacitors.
