Nickel-based molybdates have attracted considerable attention owing to their distinctive isomorphous structure. In this study, pristine NiMoO and Co-doped NiCoMoO were synthesized and investigated for their electrocatalytic activity in methanol oxidation and methanol-assisted water splitting reactions. Through a comprehensive exploration of the structure-property relationship, it was found that the optimal coexistence of α and β molybdate phases, induced by Co doping, led to lattice strain and facilitated the presence of essential catalytic descriptors such as higher oxidation states of Ni and surface oxygen vacancies within the lattice. These factors contributed to the enhanced electrocatalytic activity of NiCoMoO in methanol oxidation and hydrogen evolution reaction. Detailed kinetic studies were conducted to further elucidate the mechanisms involved. Overall, these findings highlight the promising potential of NiCoMoO as an effective catalyst for electrochemical methanol upgrading in conjunction with water splitting, with implications for sustainable energy conversion technologies.

The construction of C─N bonds from simple precursors under ambient conditions is a fundamental challenge in green chemistry, especially when it comes to avoiding energy-intensive protocols. Here, we present a continuous flow photocatalytic platform that enables the efficient coupling of C─N bonds between methanol and ammonia at ambient temperature and pressure. By synergistically engineering a Pd clusters-decorated TiO photocatalyst (1Pd/TiO) and a mass transfer-enhanced gas-liquid-solid Taylor flow reactor, the system achieves a remarkable formamide productivity of 256.

Synthesis, characterization, and electrocatalytic water oxidation studies of the cubane-type complexes [(μ-)CoCl(MeOH)] (1) and [(μ-)CoCl(MeOH)] (2) are herein reported. Cubanes 1 and 2 were obtained in high yields under mild conditions by self-assembly of the ligands = 1--2-benzimidazolylmethanol and = 1-methyl-2-benzimidazolylmethanol with CoCl·6HO in basic methanolic solution. Both compounds feature a cubane-type structure in which the central {CoO} units are built by four Co centers coordinated by alkoxide-bridged oxygen and nitrogen atoms from the deprotonated ligands and stabilized by MeOH molecules and chloride ions.

Background: Previous studies involving cleanup via conventional solid-phase extraction (SPE) materials to overcome matrix effects for the polar organophosphonate and -phosphinate pesticides glyphosate, glufosinate, ethephon, fosetyl, and their various metabolites often showed limitations due to the existence of various matrix compounds in plant commodities with similar polarity. To overcome existing drawbacks, we utilized the unique selectivity provided by metal oxides as SPE materials. These were exploited in a novel automated online SPE-LC-MS/MS method which allowed analyte-specific trapping in the presence of excessive amounts of matrix compounds as typically contained in extracts of the Quick Polar Pesticides (QuPPe) method.
