NEW APPROACHES TO CHALCOGENIDE MATERIALS FORTHERMOELECTRICS: LEAD TELLURIDE-BASED NANOSTRUCTURES ANDFACILE SYNTHESIS OF TETRAHEDRITE AND DOPED DERIVATIVES

A facile procedure is described for the preparation of [ "C]epicholesterol from [ '*C]cholesteroL Cholesterol is first converted to cholesteryl mesylate, which is treated with cesium acetate and 18-crown-6 in refluxing toluene to give epicholesteryl acetate. The latter is hydrolyzed, without isolation, with potassium hydroxide in tetrahydrofuran-methanol to give epicholesterol, which is obtaine...

A facile synthesis of highly functionalized 2H-iminopyran derivatives by the multi-component reaction of cyclohexyl isocyanide, dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates, arylglyoxals and arylamines is described. The zwitterionic intermediate produced by addition of cyclohexyl isocyanide to electron-deficient acetylene diesters was trapped by the electrophilic imine moiety of α-iminoketones, derived from...

In this investigation, Nano silica chloride (nano SiO2Cl) has been found to be efficient, chemoselective and recyclable catalyst for facile and simple synthesis of germinal diacetates from aromatic and heteroaromatic aldehydes in shorter reaction durations. The products were obtained in high to excellent yields. This work consistently has the advantages of excellent yields, short reaction time,...

A facile one step synthesis of anilino alky1-N-substituted phthalimide I is reported. The following compounds belonging to this series were made: 1. (anilino-N-ethyl) phthalimide 8 2. (3,4, 5-trimethoxy anilino-N-ethyl) phthalimide 6 3. (3,4, 5-trimethoxy anilino-N-propyl) phthalimide 7 4. N-(ethyl phthalirnido-p-amino benzoyl) glutamic acid diethyl ester 10 5. N-(propyl phthalimido-p-ami...

in this investigation, a facile and green sonochemical route has been developed for the synthesis of 2-ketomethylquinolines by using 2-methylquinolines and several acyl chlorides in the presence of nanocrystalline mgal2o4 as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst. the combination of nanocatalyst and ultrasonic process afforded corresponding ketomethyl quinolines in shorter reaction durations, and ...

A novel, efficient and facile protocol for the synthesis of a series [Ru(NHC)(CO 3 )( p -cymene)] complexes is reported.

A facile synthesis of unsymmetrical N,N'-diarylureas is described. The utilization of the Pd-catalyzed arylation of ureas enables the synthesis of an array of diarylureas in good to excellent yields from benzylurea via a one-pot arylation-deprotection protocol, followed by a second arylation.

We developed a facile synthesis to yield orthogonally protected mannose building blocks with high overall yields. The protection/glycosylation steps can be carried out in a successive manner without purification of intermediate products. This developed synthesis led to formation of linear/branched tri-, penta- and heptasaccharides.

A facile solid phase synthesis of 2,4,6,7-tetrasubstituted pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidines is described. The synthesis involves a highly efficient five-step route starting from resin-bound dimeric peptoids. To demonstrate the versatility of our method, a representative library of 108 tetrasubstituted pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidines of high quality was synthesized.
