Oleochemical carbonates: A comprehensive characterization of an emerging class of organic compounds

Alessandro Triolo et al.

Summary: Dialkyl carbonates with short-medium alkyl length, also known as oleochemical carbonates, have attractive properties and a wide range of applications. However, their chemical physical properties and microscopic correlations are not well understood. In this study, we explored the temperature dependence of these properties and the microscopic morphology of DACs. Our findings reveal a distinct degree of mesoscopic spatial segregation and the role of carbonate moieties in driving weak hydrogen bonding interactions and alkyl chain alignment. These findings have implications for the potential applications of DACs in separation, catalysis, and lubrication fields.

Carbon Dioxide Chemisorption by Ammonium and Phosphonium Ionic Liquids: Quantum Chemistry Calculations

Vitaly V. Chaban

Summary: Carbon capture and storage is a significant effort to improve the ecology by combating global warming. This study investigates the reaction paths of CO2 chemisorption by ammonium- and phosphonium-based ionic liquids containing 2-cyanopyrrolide as an anion. The results demonstrate that both the cation and anion participate in the chemisorption, and the phosphonium-based cation shows more favorable performance compared to the ammonium-based cation due to the inherent instability. The study provides a fundamental understanding of the CO2 sorption performance of these quaternary ammonium- and phosphonium-based 2-cyanopyrrolides.

Extensively amino-functionalized graphene captures carbon dioxide

Vitaly V. Chaban et al.

Summary: In this study, a prospective CO2 sorbent based on amino-functionalized graphene was reported. The results showed that up to six amino groups can be grafted per benzene ring and chemically fix CO2. Despite the negative impact of increased functional group density on the thermodynamics of chemisorption, the high number of prospective reaction sites compensates for it. The functionalization and chemisorption also decrease the hydrophobicity of graphene derivatives.
