• Embedding colloidal nanoparticles inside mesoporous silica using gas expanded liquids for high loading recyclable catalysts 

  Collins, Gillian; Rahme, Kamil; O'Connell, John; Holmes, Justin D. (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016-07-11)

  The ability to tune the structural and chemical properties of colloidal nanoparticles (NPs), make them highly advantageous for studying activity and selectivity dependent catalytic behaviour. Incorporating pre-synthesized ...
• Assessing charge contribution from thermally treated Ni foam as current collectors for Li-ion batteries 

  Geaney, Hugh; McNulty, David; O'Connell, John; Holmes, Justin D.; O'Dwyer, Colm (Electrochemical Society, 2016-07-22)

  In this report we have investigated the use of Ni foam substrates as anode current collectors for Li-ion batteries. As the majority of reports in the literature focus on hydrothermal formation of materials on Ni foam ...
• Diameter-driven crossover in resistive behaviour of heavily doped self-seeded germanium nanowires 

  Connaughton, Stephen; Koleśnik-Gray, Maria M.; Hobbs, Richard G.; Lotty, Olan; Holmes, Justin D.; Krstić, Vojislav (Beilstein-Institut, 2016-09-13)

  The dependence of the resistivity with changing diameter of heavily-doped self-seeded germanium nanowires was studied for the diameter range 40 to 11 nm. The experimental data reveal an initial strong reduction of the ...
• Telescoped approach to aryl hydroxymethylation in the synthesis of a key pharmaceutical intermediate 

  Slattery, Catherine N.; Deasy, Rebecca E.; Maguire, Anita R.; Kopach, Michael E.; Singh, Utpal K.; Argentine, Mark D.; Trankle, William G.; Scherer, Roger B.; Moynihan, Humphrey A. (American Chemical Society, 2013-05-30)

  An efficient synthetic approach leading to introduction of the hydroxymethyl group to an aryl moiety via combination of the Bouveault formylation and hydride reduction has been optimized using a rational, mechanistic-based ...
• Investigation of additive effects in enantioselective copper-catalysed C-H insertion and aromatic addition reactions of α-diazocarbonyl compounds 

  Slattery, Catherine N.; Clarke, Leslie-Ann; O'Neill, Shane T.; Ring, Aoife; Ford, Alan; Maguire, Anita R. (Georg Thieme Verlag, 2012-01)

  Significant enhancements in enantioselectivities and reaction efficiencies in asymmetric copper-catalysed C-H insertion and aromatic addition reactions of α-diazocarbonyl compounds in the presence of various group I salts ...
