Abstract
Caesium entrapped in nanoporous carbon is not pyrophoric, is thermally stable towards desorption up to 773 K, but retains its ability to produce hydrogen from water, and is a strong basic catalyst, providing a greater than 9:1 ratio of the less stable cis-but-2-ene over the trans isomer in the isomerization of but-1-ene at 273 K.
