Spotlights: Use of Montmorillonites in organic reactions

Maryam Mashhadinezhad was born in Rasht, Guilan, I. R. Iran. She received her B. Sc in chemistry in 2009 from the University of Guilan and her M.Sc. in organic chemistry in 2011 from the same University. She is studying under the supervision of Dr. Farhad Shirini for her Ph. D. Her research interests include the use of heterogeneous catalysts in organic reactions.

Organic Chemical Reactions

Understanding solid/solid organic reactions.

The concept of an organic reaction between two macroscopic solid particles is investigated. Thus, we study several reactions that have been recently reported to proceed "in the solid phase" and clearly show that, in most cases, grinding the two solid reactants together results in the formation of a liquid phase. This is true both for catalytic transformations (e.g., aldol condensations and olig...

Electrode Reactions of Organic Compounds

The last Faraday Society Discussions on Electrode Processes were held in 1947 and marked the onset of an extensive fruitful post-war development of fast reaction techniques in electrochemistry. Considerable information has since been obtained on rate constants of simple inorganic electron transfers, paralleling a similar development in homogeneous reactions, and on electron transfer theory. A t...
