Preparation of Perfluorocaboxylic Acids from Ethers by Electrochemical Fluorination

Electrochemical fluorination of perovskite type BaFeO2.5.

Here we report on the first electrochemical fluorination exemplarily performed on perovskite type BaFeO2.5. A cell setup of the type BaFeO2.5 II La0.9Ba0.1F2.9 II MFx (with MFx being MgF2 and CeF3) was used to perform the reaction, charging the cell up to voltages of about 4 V. Formation of a compound of approximate composition BaFeO2.5F∼0.5 was observed, in agreement with diffraction studies o...

Palladium-mediated fluorination of arylboronic acids.

Electrochemical polymer reaction: selective fluorination of a poly(fluorene) derivative.

Anodic fluorodesulfurization of a poly(fluorene) derivative coated on a Pt electrode was successfully carried out in an ionic liquid hydrogen fluoride salt, yielding a alternating copolymer containing a difluorofluorene moiety.

Electrochemical Preparation and Characterization of Mn5O8 Nanostructures

Electrochemical synthesis followed by heat-treatment is a facile and easy method for preparation of nanostructured metal oxides. Herein we report nanostructured Mn5O8 prepared through pulse cathodic deposition followed by heat-treatment for the first time. For the preparation of Mn5O8 nanorods, pulse cathodic electrodeposition was first done from 0.005M Mn(NO3)2 at the current density of 5 mA c...

Preparation of biodiesel from rice bran fatty acids catalyzed by heterogeneous cesium-exchanged 12-tungstophosphoric acids.

Biodiesel synthesis from rice bran fatty acids (RBFA) was carried out using cesium exchanged 12-tungstophosphoric acid (TPA) catalysts. The physico-chemical properties of the catalysts were derived from X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), temperature programmed desorption (TPD) of NH(3) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The characterization techniques revealed that...
