Provided are methods of making aliphatic or aromatic compounds (e.g., small molecules or polymers) having one or more amine groups and/or imine groups. A method of the present disclosure is an electrohydrogenation method, where a potential is applied to an aliphatic or aromatic compound (e.g., small molecule or polymer) having one or more nitrile groups, where after the potential is applied one or more of the nitrile groups are reduced to an amine or imine. The electrohydrogenation may be carried out using non-pulsed or pulsed potential waveforms.

This invention relates to a process for the electrochemical synthesis of ammonia (NH3) and the ammonia produced thereby. Ammonia is synthesized by the electrochemical reduction of nitrogenous materials such as nitrogen or nitrates (NO.sub.3.sup.-) using metal phthalocyanine such as iron phthalocyanine (FePc) or β-cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPc) or iron phthalocyanine-molybdenum disulfide (FePc-MoS.sub.2) or cobalt phthalocyanine- carbon nitride (CoPc-C.sub.3N.sub.4) catalyst at very low pressure and room temperature by applying low potential.

Disclosed in the present invention are methods for the electrochemical generation of aqueous organic haloamine solutions from precursor solutions comprising at least one halide-containing salt, at least one organic amine component, and an acid additive. The described method allows for the production of aqueous organic haloamine solutions with compositions ranging from a single organic haloamine component to multiple organic haloamine components and multiple free halogen components and solutions with desired pH values.

A hydrogel is formed by a reaction which is induced, in an electrolytic solution, by an electrode product electrochemically generated by electrodes installed in the electrolytic solution. An apparatus including an electrolytic tank with a bottom surface on which a two-dimensional array of working electrodes is provided and a counter electrode installed in the electrolytic tank is prepared. An electrolytic solution containing a dissolved substance that causes electrolytic deposition of a hydrogel is housed in the electrolytic tank. By applying a predetermined voltage to one or more selected working electrodes of the two-dimensional array, a hydrogel with a two-dimensional pattern corresponding to the arrangement of the selected working electrodes is formed.
