Nitropyridyl isocyanate
Isocyanates constitute an important class of compounds in organic chemistry. Because of their instability and high reactivity the heterocyclic isocyanates have however not got the same attention as the respective aromatic compounds in synthesis and reacti vity studies. We have recently shown that...

Sykliske disulfonimider. Fremstilling og reaktivitet av aminbaserte utgående grupper
Aryl- og alkylsulfonatderivater av alkoholer gir en rikholdig kjemi for aktivering av OH-grupper for videre funksjonalisering. OH-grupper er i seg selv generelt dårlige, ikke selektive utgående grupper. En tilsvarende kjemi for aminer eksisterer ikke. Imi dertid har syntesegruppen ved NTNU demons...

Hydrotalcite-like compounds as catalytic materials for the conversion of natural gas components (light alkanes) to synthesis gas
Light alkanes (C2-C4) constitute approximately 10% of the North Sea natural gas (NG). Pre-reforming of C2-C4 is an important part of modern synthesis gas plants, such as Statoil’s methanol plant at Tjeldbergodden. Reforming of natural gas also has a poten tial use as a source for hydrogen product...
