In this work, we have synthesized eccentric Au@TiO(2) core-shell nanostructures and demonstrated their multiple reuse in the catalytic reduction of 4-nitrophenol.

A new microengine-based built-in-platform exploiting a surprising dual action with solution mixing and control of the reaction parameters, has been applied for accelerating chemical reactions (organophosphorous nerve agents hydrolysis) and electrochemical detection of non-hazardous by-product (p-nitrophenol) using printable sensor strip.

An automated continuous flow reactor system for the optimisation of nanoparticle catalysed reactions, demonstrated through a gold nitrophenol reduction reaction.

Atmospheric brown carbon (BrC) is a kind of organic aerosol that efficiently absorbs ultraviolet-visible light and has an impact on climate forcing. We conducted in-depth field study ambient aerosols at monitoring point in Shanghai, China, aiming to investigate the potential emission sources, molecular structures, contributions absorptions BrC chromophores. The results indicated nine molecules ...

In the title adduct, 2C(6)H(5)NO(3)·C(3)H(6)N(6)·H(2)O, the melamine and the two independent nitrophenol molecules are essentially planar, with maximum deviations of 0.0294 (10), 0.0706 (12) and 0.0742 (12) Å, respectively. In the crystal, N-H⋯N, O-H⋯N, N-H⋯O and O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the components into a three-dimensional network. In addition, weak π-π inter-actions [centroid-centroid dis...

This work reports the reduction of 4-nitrophenol to 4-aminophenol using UiO-66(Zr) as a bifunctional photocatalyst and hydrogenation catalyst methanol hydrogen source.

ZrO2 nanopowder was prepared by the sol-gel auto-combustion method. The product was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive analysis of X-ray (EDX) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The average crystalline size of ZrO2 was obtained 62 nm. Also, photocatalytic removal of nitrophenol from aqueous solution by using nanoscale ZrO2 under UV ...
