In this study, platinum–cobalt bimetallic catalysts supported on mesoporous silica aerogel (SAG), abbreviated as PCx/SAG,x= 1–6, were prepared by facile chemical reduction and a simple, efficient microwave-assisted method using Co and Pt precursors.

Herein, the microwave-assisted wet precipitation method was used to obtain materials consisting of mesoporous silica (SBA-15) and calcium orthophosphates (CaP). Composites were prepared through immersion of mesoporous silica in different calcification coating solutions and then exposed to microwave radiation. The composites were characterized in terms of molecular structure, crystallinity, morphology, chemical composition, and mineralization potential by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy equipped with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX). The application of microwave irradiation resulted in the formation of different types of calcium orthophosphates such as calcium deficient hydroxyapatite (CDHA), octacalcium phosphate (OCP), and amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) on the SBA-15 surface, depending on the type of coating solution. The composites for which the progressive formation of hydroxyapatite during incubation in simulated body fluid was observed were further used in the production of final pharmaceutical forms: membranes, granules, and pellets. All of the obtained pharmaceutical forms preserved mineralization properties.

In this work, we study the trans influence of boryl ligands and other commonly used non-boryl ligands in order to search for a more active catalyst than the ruthenium dihydride complex Ru(PNP)(CO)H2 for the hydrogenation of CO2. The theoretical calculation results show that only the B ligands exhibit a stronger trans influence than the hydride ligand and are along increasing order of trans influence as follows: –H < –BBr2 < –BCl2 ≈ –B(OCH)2 < –Bcat < –B(OCH2)2 ≈ –B(OH)2 < –Bpin < –B(NHCH2)2 < –B(OCH3)2 < –B(CH3)2 < –BH2. The computed activation free energy for the direct hydride addition to CO2 and the NBO analysis of the property of the Ru–H bond indicate that the activity of the hydride can be enhanced by the strong trans influence of the B ligands through the change in the Ru–H bond property. The function of the strong trans influence of B ligands is to decrease the d orbital component of Ru in the Ru–H bond. The design of a more active catalyst than the Ru(PNP)(CO)H2 complex is possible.
