Carbamation of Starch with Amine Using Dimethyl Carbonate as Coupling Agent

Preparation of Ag2S Nanoparticles and using as Catalyst for the A3-coupling (Aldehyde-Amine-Alkyne) Reaction

Microwave assisted facile one-step approach was adopted to prepare mono-dispersed silver sulfide nanoparticles. The structures of the synthesized Ag2S nanoparticles were confirmed by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), diffuse reflectance UV-vis spectroscopy (DRS), X-ray diffractometer (XRD), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The pre...

Dimethyl carbonate as an ambident electrophile.

[reaction: see text] The features of various anions having different soft/hard character (aliphatic and aromatic amines, alcohoxydes, phenoxides, thiolates) are compared with regard to nucleophilic substitutions on dimethyl carbonate (DMC), using different reaction conditions. Results are well in agreement with the Hard-Soft Acid-Base (HSAB) theory. Accordingly, the high selectivity of monometh...

Fabrication and Physical Properties of Polycaprolactone/starch Blends with Corn Based Coupling Agent

Polycaprolactone (PCL) is being developed as the material of scaffolds for tissue engineering [1]. PCL is considered having fair mechanical properties and characteristics of potentials for load bearing applications, including cardiovascular, dental, and musculoskeletal [1-4]. Yet, its implementation faces some issues, e.g. inadequate mechanical properties, bioresorbability, and hydrophilicity [...

New developments in dimethyl carbonate chemistry*

Dimethylcarbonate (DMC) is a valuable methylating reagent which can replace methyl halides and dimethylsulfate in the methylation of a variety of nucleophiles. It couples tunable reactivity and unprecedented selectivity toward mono-Cand mono-N-methylation in the reactions of acidic CH2 and primary aromatic amines, respectively. In addition, it is a prototype example of a green reagent, since it...
