Chem Soc Rev: Asymmetrically Tailored Catalysts for Electrochemical Energy Conversion with Non-Precious Materials

Chem Soc Rev: Asymmetrically Tailored Catalysts for Electrochemical Energy Conversion with Non-Precious Materials

Electrocatalytic technologies, such as water electrolysis and metal-air batteries, open new pathways for sustainable energy storage and conversion. However, traditional catalysts are limited by the trade-offs between activity, stability, and scalability. Asymmetrically tailored electrocatalysts (ATEs) have emerged, breaking these limitations through asymmetric design in composition, size, shape, and coordination environment. We focus on the latest … Read more

The Latest and Most Comprehensive Study on the Polarity of Free Radical Intermediates

The Latest and Most Comprehensive Study on the Polarity of Free Radical Intermediates

The polarity of free radical intermediates has a profound impact on their reactivity and selectivity. To quantify this effect and predict its outcomes, the Nagib research group at Ohio State University calculated the electrophilicity/nucleophilicity of over 500 types of free radicals. The figure also includes a simple “rule of thumb” for qualitatively predicting free radical … Read more
