Organic synthesis of high added value molecules with MOF catalysts
2020
Recent examples of organic synthesis of fine chemicals and pharmaceuticals in confined spaces of MOFs are highlighted and compared with silica-based ordered porous solids, such as zeolites or mesoporous (organo)silica. These heterogeneous catalysts offer the possibility of stabilizing the desired transition states and/or intermediates during organic transformations of functional groups and (C-C/C-N) bond forming steps towards the desired functional high added value molecular scaffolds. A short introduction on zeolites, mesoporous silica and metal-organic frameworks is followed by relevant applications in which confined active sites in the pores promote single or multi-step organic synthesis…
Progress in the standardisation of particle and surface characterisation
2002
In 1999, we published a comprehensive survey of standards and certified reference materials for dispersed and porous solids. The present paper summarises and reports on new standards and proposals.
Tetrathiafulvalene-Capped Hybrid Materials for the Optical Detection of Explosives
2013
[EN] Mesoporous silica microparticles capped with TTF moieties and containing a ruthenium dye in the pores were used for the turn-on optical detection of the nitroaromatic explosives Tetryl and TNT via a selective pore uncapping and release of the entrapped dye.
Standardization of sorption measurements and reference materials for dispersed and porous solids

Rovibrational spectroscopy of ethylene : Stark effect : Application to ethylene in zeolites
2010
The objective of this report is to present a study as complete as possible of the Stark effect in the asymmetric top molecules of X2Y4 type possessing the D2h symmetry group and to apply it to the problem of the spectroscopy of the ethylene molecule trapped in a zeolite. For the first time, a tensorial formalism adapted to the study of the Stark effect for the O(3) D2h group chain was developed. In parallel, a computer package was worked out as a new generation of software called D2hTDS-ST using a simpler basis, allowing an economy in the calculation time. On the basis of the theoretical and computing tools as well as from the experimental spectra, recorded in the laboratory, we made a firs…
Standardization of Methods for Characterizing the Surface Geometry of Solids
2003
Since a comprehensive survey published in 1999 [1] much work was done in standardizing measuring methods to characterize the surface geometry of dispersed and/or porous solids and to certify reference materials. The present paper is an extension of a short communication [2]. It gives a survey on existing standards and reports on new drafts and proposals.
Thermogravimetric and Sorption Measurement Techniques/Instruments
2002
The survey covers commercially offered instruments for the determination of the surface structure of porous solids based on isothermal measurement of physisorption of inert gases and of thermogravimetric instruments. Basic assumptions, features and experimental uncertainties are compared.
