Does Deuteration Change More then the Phonon Spectrum?
Our recent express measurments on protonated and deuterated 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) have highlighted some interesting differences between the two. We seek to... -
Kinetics of Benzene Hydrogenation Revisited in the Presence of Excess Liquid
Heterogeneous catalysis, where the reagents are either contained in a liquid medium, or are liquids in their own right, plays a significant part of the chemical industry. These... -
