Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Catalysis
  • Organic chemistry
  • Oxygen

Pierre Jacobs mainly focuses on Catalysis, Organic chemistry, Inorganic chemistry, Heterogeneous catalysis and Zeolite. His Catalysis study often links to related topics such as Carbon. He works mostly in the field of Inorganic chemistry, limiting it down to topics relating to Adsorption and, in certain cases, Xylene and Olefin fiber, as a part of the same area of interest.

His research integrates issues of Sorption, Covalent bond, Acid catalysis, Ene reaction and Molecule in his study of Heterogeneous catalysis. He has researched Zeolite in several fields, including Cracking, Chemical engineering, Hydrocarbon and Decane. His Isomerization research integrates issues from Heptane and Polymer chemistry.

His most cited work include:

  • Ordered mesoporous and microporous molecular sieves functionalized with transition metal complexes as catalysts for selective organic transformations. (892 citations)
  • Probing the Lewis acidity and catalytic activity of the metal-organic framework [Cu3(btc)2] (BTC=benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate). (552 citations)
  • Fine Chemicals through Heterogeneous Catalysis (523 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary areas of study are Catalysis, Organic chemistry, Zeolite, Inorganic chemistry and Chemical engineering. The various areas that Pierre Jacobs examines in his Catalysis study include Photochemistry and Polymer chemistry. His Photochemistry research incorporates themes from Radical, Autoxidation and Reaction mechanism.

His Organic chemistry research focuses on Mesoporous material, Cellulose, Epoxide, Hydrogen peroxide and Kinetic resolution. His Zeolite research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Bifunctional, Crystallization, Molecular sieve, Microporous material and Decane. His work carried out in the field of Inorganic chemistry brings together such families of science as Metal, Adsorption and Aqueous solution.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Catalysis (59.52%)
  • Organic chemistry (34.49%)
  • Zeolite (28.23%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2007-2020)?

  • Catalysis (59.52%)
  • Organic chemistry (34.49%)
  • Inorganic chemistry (25.97%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Pierre Jacobs spends much of his time researching Catalysis, Organic chemistry, Inorganic chemistry, Zeolite and Heterogeneous catalysis. The Catalysis study combines topics in areas such as Carbon and Chemical engineering. Many of his studies involve connections with topics such as Cover and Organic chemistry.

His Inorganic chemistry study combines topics in areas such as Coke and Adsorption. His study explores the link between Zeolite and topics such as Carbon nanotube that cross with problems in Electron paramagnetic resonance and Condensed matter physics. His Heterogeneous catalysis study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Carbon dioxide reforming, Epoxide, Transition metal, MCM-41 and Isomerization.

Between 2007 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Recent Advances in the Catalytic Conversion of Cellulose (438 citations)
  • Selective adsorption and separation of ortho-substituted alkylaromatics with the microporous aluminum terephthalate MIL-53. (315 citations)
  • Fast and selective sugar conversion to alkyl lactate and lactic acid with bifunctional carbon-silica catalysts. (240 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Catalysis
  • Organic chemistry
  • Oxygen

His main research concerns Catalysis, Organic chemistry, Inorganic chemistry, Heterogeneous catalysis and Cellulose. The study incorporates disciplines such as Carbon and Chemical engineering in addition to Catalysis. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Selective adsorption, Adsorption, Metal-organic framework, Selectivity and Isomerization.

Pierre Jacobs combines subjects such as Carbon dioxide reforming, Epoxide, Dehydrogenation, Mixed oxide and Diamine with his study of Heterogeneous catalysis. His Cellulose study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Caesium, Hydrolysis, Carbon nanofiber and Levulinic acid. His Zeolite research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Yttrium, Molecule, Hydrocarbon and Analytical chemistry.
