Performance of Metal-Catalyzed Hydrodebromination of Dibromomethane Analyzed by Descriptors Derived from Statistical Learning

The catalyzed semihydrogenation of dibromomethane (CH2Br2) to methyl bromide (CH3Br) is a key step in the bromine-mediated upgradation of methane. This study presents a cutting-edge strategy combining density functional theory (DFT), catalytic tests complemented with the extensive characterization o...

Description
Summary:The catalyzed semihydrogenation of dibromomethane (CH2Br2) to methyl bromide (CH3Br) is a key step in the bromine-mediated upgradation of methane. This study presents a cutting-edge strategy combining density functional theory (DFT), catalytic tests complemented with the extensive characterization of a wide range of metal catalysts (Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Ru, Rh, Ag, Ir, and Pt), and statistical tools for a computer-assisted investigation of this reaction. The steady-state catalytic tests identified four classes of materials comprising (i) poorly active (
