Iron(I) complexes of 2,9-bis(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1,10-phenanthroline (H2dophen) as electrocatalysts for carbon dioxide reduction. X-Ray crystal structures of [Fe(dophen)Cl]2·2HCON(CH3)2 and [Fe(dophen)(N-MeIm)2]ClO4 (N-MeIm = 1-methylimidazole)

TL;DR: The crystal structure of two iron complexes of 2,9-bis(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1,10-phenanthroline (H2dophen) [Fe(dophen),ClO4 [2] (N-MeIm = 1-methylimidazole) have been determined as mentioned in this paper.

Cobalt and nickel complexes of 2,2′ : 6′,2″ : 6″,2‴-quaterpyridine as catalysts for electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide
TL;DR: In this paper, the cobalt-modified electrode is catalytically active towards the electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide both in acetonitrile and in water, but its catalytic activity towards reduction of CO2 is much less than that of the traditional cobalt complex.

Sulfuric Acid-Catalyzed Conversion of Alkynes to Ketones in an Ionic Liquid Medium under Mild Reaction Conditions

TL;DR: An efficient and recyclable ionic liquid system containing a small amount of sulfuric acid as the catalyst (0.5−8.0 mol equiv to substrate) has been successfully developed for hydration of various alkynes under mild reaction conditions (40 °C, 0.5 h) to give high yields of ketones (88−100%) as products.

A Simple and Effective Catalytic System for Epoxidation of Aliphatic Terminal Alkenes with Manganese(II) as the Catalyst
TL;DR: ESI-MS and EPR spectroscopic studies suggest that the active form of the catalyst is a high-valent oligonuclear manganese species, which probably functions as the oxygen atom-transfer agent in the epoxidation reaction.

A Simple and Effective Catalytic System for Epoxidation of Aliphatic Terminal Alkenes with Manganese(II) as the Catalyst.
TL;DR: A simple catalytic system that uses commercially available manganese(II) perchlorate as the catalyst and peracetic acid as the oxidant is found to be very effective in the epoxidation of aliphatic terminal alkenes with high product selectivity at ambient temperature as mentioned in this paper.
