Steam reforming of acetic acid (AcOH) was investigated over mesoporous alumina supported mono- and bi-metallic Ni and/or Cu based catalysts. Results obtained with mesoporous alumina supported catalysts were compared with another set of experiments performed using a commercial Cu Zn based HifuelR-120 catalyst and Ni impregnated HifuelR-120. Comparison of catalytic performances of Cu and Ni based catalysts showed that Cu activated the decomposition of AcOH giving mainly CH4 and CO2, while Ni was highly active for steam reforming reaction, yielding quite high H-2 selectivities, reaching to 70%. This H-2 selectivity was quite close to the equilibrium limit. Very low CO selectivity observed with HifuelR-120 and low CO/CO2 ratios observed especially with the Cu based catalysts clearly indicated that CO was not an intermediate of AcOH reforming reaction, but formed mainly as a result of reverse water gas shift reaction. Ni containing catalysts were shown to have high activity also for the reverse water gas shift reaction. Comparison of the performances of mono-metallic Ni and bi-metallic Ni Cu containing MA catalysts showed that the performance of the bi-metallic catalyst was better, yielding less CH4. Although the activities of nickel containing catalysts were quite high in steam reforming of AcOH, they yield more coke as compared to Cu based materials. (C) 2017 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC.

SYNTHESIS OF A NEW ELECTROCHROMIC POLYMER BASED ON TETRAPHENYLETHYLENE CORED TETRAKIS CARBAZOLE COMPLEX AND ITS ELECTROCHROMIC DEVICE APPLICATION Carbas, Buket Bezgin; Odabas, Serhat; Turksoy, Figen; Tanyeli, Cihangir (2016-03-01) Poly-1,1,2,2-tetrakis(4-9H-carbazol-9-yl)phenyl)ethene P(TCP) was successfully synthesized by electrochemical oxidation of corresponding monomer, namely, 1,1,2,2-tetrakis(4-9H-carbazol-9-yl)phenyl)ethene (TCP) using dichloromethane as the solvent and tetrabutylammonium hexafluorophosphate (TBAPF(6)) as supporting electrolyte. Spectroelectrochemical properties of P(TCP) were investigated in situ recording the electronic absorption spectra of the polymer film coated on indium-tin oxide (ITO) at various potent...
Effect of W incorporation on the product distribution in steam reforming of bio-oil derived acetic acid over Ni based Zr-SBA-15 catalyst Cakiryilmaz, Nurbanu; ARBAĞ, HÜSEYİN; OKTAR, NURAY; DOĞU, GÜLŞEN; Doğu, Timur (2018-02-15) Zirconia incorporated SBA-15 type mesoporous material was synthesized following a one pot hydrothermal route, characterized and used as the catalyst support in the synthesis of Ni and bi-metallic Ni W based catalysts. Performances of these catalysts were tested in steam reforming of AcOH. Catalytic activity tests proved that the performances of SBA-15 and Zr-SBA-15 supported Ni based catalysts were highly stable and they also showed very high activity in steam reforming of acetic acid, giving complete conve...
Regioselectivity observed in manganese(III) acetate mediated addition of acetylacetone to various alkenes: mechanistic and theoretical studies Ceyhan, Selin; Cetinkaya, Yasin; Akdağ, Akın; BALCI, METİN (2016-10-27) Various alkenes substituted at the 1,2-positions by 2-thiophenyl, 3-thiophenyl, and phenyl substituted by electron-withdrawing and electron-donating groups were treated with acetylacetone in the presence of Mn(OAc)(3) in acetic acid. In cases where the thiophene ring was connected at the C-2 carbon atom to the double bond, a single regioisomer was formed whereas in case of substitution at the C-3 positions two regioisomers were formed. Stilbene derivatives also gave two regioisomers under the same reaction ...
Synthesis of aromatic poly(pyridinium salt)s and their electrochromic properties Keshtov, M. L.; UDUM, YASEMİN; Toppare, Levent Kamil; Kochurov, V. S.; Khokhlov, A. R. (Elsevier BV, 2013-05-15) Synthesis of a series of new conjugated electrochromic polymeric pyridinium salts containing main-chain triphenylamine and their electrochromic properties were demonstrated. All polymers exhibit intense UV absorptions at 336-338 nm in DMF and 340-343 nm in thin film form and fluorescence centered at 410-438 nm in DMF and 460-461 nm in thin film form. The electrochromic properties of the films were investigated by electrochemical and spectroelectrochemical methods. Reversible redox signals with stable electr...

(2016-05-01) Modified Hantzsch reaction in three- and four-component system in the presence of new chiral organic catalysts was investigated and the advantages of this reaction in three- component system compared to four-component one were demonstrated, the influence of catalysts on the dynamics and stereochemistry of the reaction was elucidated. The enantiomeric excess of the main reaction product was evaluated with HPLC, its structure was proved by X-ray diffraction analysis.
