Ammonia Synthesis Using Magnetically Induced Reaction

Ammonia-Promoted One-Pot Tetrazolopiperidinone Synthesis by Ugi Reaction

Ammonia in the tetrazole Ugi variation together with α-amino acid methyl ester-derived isocyanides provides tetrazolopiperidinones in good to high yields in one pot. The scope and limitations of this reaction were investigated by performing >70 reactions. The scaffold is useful to fill high-throughput screening decks and in structure-based drug design.

Synthesis and Characterization of Ru/Al2O3 Nanocatalyst for Ammonia Synthesis

Ru/Al2O3 catalysts were prepared by conventional incipient wetness impregnation as well as colloid deposition of RuCl3 precursor via in situ reduction with ethylene glycol (polyol) method on alumina support. The samples were characterized by TEM, XRD and TPR techniques. The catalytic performance tests were carried out in a fixed-bed micro-reactor under diffe...

Magnetically induced thermal rectification.

We consider far from equilibrium heat transport in chaotic billiard chains with noninteracting charged particles in the presence of nonuniform transverse magnetic field. If half of the chain is placed in a strong magnetic field, or if the strength of the magnetic field has a large gradient along the chain, heat current is shown to be asymmetric with respect to exchange of the temperatures of th...

Magnetically Induced Plasma Rotation

The extensively studied and controversial question about the origin of the observed fast rotation for magnetically confined plasmas, in particular theta pinches, is briefly reviewed. It is shown that standard MHD equations predict the experimentally observed rotation. The effect is interpreted as a form of the Einstein-de Haas effect. The generally accepted continuum plasma reasoning which deni...
