A series of fiber supported acid–base bifunctional catalysts (FABCs) were developed by successive grafting of acrylic acid and 4-vinylpyridine onto the polypropylene fiber (PPF). The FABCs can ...

The palladium-on-carbon (Pd/C)-catalyzed hydrogenative deprotection of the N-benzyl-protecting group was effectively facilitated by the combined use of niobic acid-on-carbon (Nb2O5/C). Nb2O5/C is an ...
