Abstract:

Monodisperse copper-iron-sulfide (CuFeS2) nanoparticles as the infrared light absorbing material (chalcopyrite, 0.65 eV), were synthesized based on facile, one step heating up method, by dissolving of CuCl, FeCl3 and SC(NH2)2 as precursors in oleylamine (OLA) alone or in combination with oleic acid (OA) and 1-octadecene (ODE) as solvent. The phase, size, morphology, and size distribution were controlled by the reaction conditions and temperature. The CuFeS2 nanoparticles were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Raman spectrum and ultraviolet-visible-near infrared. The three main absorbance region was observed in the ultraviolet, visible and infrared as a hybridization of Fe 3d-S 3p among the valence band (Cu 3d-S 3p) and conduction band (Cu 4s-Fe 4s). Well controlled CuFeS2 triangular pyramidal along with semi-hexagonal and hexagonal shape (~ 20-25 nm) was obtained by using OLA or a mixture of OLA along with OA and ODE, respectively, with 210 °C heating up and 4 h annealing time.

Precursor driven one pot synthesis of wurtzite and chalcopyrite CuFeS2.

A facile precursor dependent single step, one pot solution based synthesis of wurtzite and chalcopyrite polymorphs of CuFeS2 has been developed by reacting a Cu(I) thiourea complex with Fe2(SO4)3 and FeCl3 separately in ethylene glycol. The phases have been characterized by structural refinements, SEM-EDX, TEM-SAED, Raman, UV-Visible spectroscopy and TGA measurements.

A facile, stereoselective, one-pot synthesis of resveratrol derivatives

BACKGROUND Compounds based on trans-1,2-diphenylethene are the subject of intense interest both for their optical properties and as potential leads for drug discovery, as a consequence of their anticancer, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Perhaps the best known of these is trans-3,5,4'-trihydroxystilbene (resveratrol), that has been identified as a promising lead in the search for ...
