Biologically Inspired Organometallic Fuel Cell (OMFC) That Converts Renewable Alcohols into Energy and Chemicals

Embedded and working: The intact deposition of a complex into carbon powder allows the construction of an organometallic fuel cell (OMFC) that efficiently converts alcohols into carboxylic acids. This method may provide a way for the synthesis of fine chemicals from renewable resources under waste‐f...

Description
Summary:Embedded and working: The intact deposition of a complex into carbon powder allows the construction of an organometallic fuel cell (OMFC) that efficiently converts alcohols into carboxylic acids. This method may provide a way for the synthesis of fine chemicals from renewable resources under waste‐free conditions.
