An expeditious, simple, highly efficient, practical and green protocol for the N-formylation of alkyl/aryl amines and indole derivatives catalyzed by novel nano rod-shaped basic Al2O3 under solvent-free conditions has been developed. The catalyst is efficiently recycled up to the 5th run, an important point in the domain of green chemistry. The methodology provides cleaner conversion, shorter reaction times and high selectivity which makes the protocol attractive.

A novel high-entropy sulfide (ZnCoMnFeAlMg)9S8 as a low potential and long life electrocatalyst for overall water splitting in experiments and DFT analysis

Shun Li, Likai Tong, Zhijian Peng, Bo Zhang, Xiuli Fu

Summary: Sulfide compounds show promise as electrocatalysts for water splitting, but their performance is limited by factors such as limited active sites and hindered substance transport. This study successfully prepared a high-entropy sulfide (ZnCoMnFeAlMg)(9)S-8, which reduced grain size and increased specific surface area, enabling the realization of a dual-functional catalyst with multiple catalytic sites. High entropy also modulated the electronic properties of sulfides, reducing the potential energy barrier for hydrolysis. This research introduces a new approach for functionalizing high entropy nanomaterials and improves the performance of water splitting catalysts.
