The heat capacities of argon, ammonia, and methanol on carbon black at 87.3, 240, and 300 K, respectively, have been investigated. The carbon black surface has been modeled with and without carbonyl groups. Part of this investigation is a decomposition of the heat capacity into its contributions from the different interaction potentials of an adsorption system. All systems show a spectrum of he...

acetylation is a chemical modification of wood to enhance its properties. ir-spectroscopy is a useful technique for proofing chemical bondings in wood and the at-tenuated total reflection (atr) infrared spectroscopy technique was applied as an eas-ier technique over other ir-spectroscopies. in this research, different degrees of acetyla-tion, weight percentage gains (wpgs) in beech and pine min...

Yeehaw! The rotation of a visible-light-driven molecular motor based on barbituric acid is tamed by hydrogen bonding “lasso” mechanism between its serendipitously-formed tertiary hydroxy stereocentre and lower half carbonyl groups.

silica sulfuric acid is employed as solid acid catalyst for the clean and less hazardousprotection of carbonyl compounds as 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazone under solvent-free conditions.

Saturated carbonyl compounds, such as aldehydes and esters, are basic building blocks for the synthesis of organic molecules and materials. Reactions with carbonyl compounds as substrates primarily occur at the carbonyl carbon atom (as an electrophilic center) or the a-carbon atom (as a prenucleophile). In organocatalysis, several powerful approaches have been developed for the asymmetric funct...

A novel ester-rich copolymer/ionic liquid quasi-solid-state electrolyte (SPE-IL) was designed, and dual Li-ion migration channels (“association–disassociation” with the carbonyl groups rapid ion exchange ionic liquids) were built in it.

one series of half-analogues of michler’s ketone containing one or more terminal methoxysubstituents with variable tertiary amino groups have been used in this study. nmr spectralresults for the parent ketones confirm earlier findings that ortho proton shifts are apparentlyindependent from steric effects in derivatives of michler’s ketone because the ring current andcarbonyl-induced shifts are ...

Noncovalent interactions play an essential role in biological and chemical processes. In the main chain of common protein secondary structures, the lone pair (n) of a carbonyl oxygen is delocalized into the antibonding orbital (π*) of the subsequent carbonyl group. Herein, experimental and computational data reveal that this n→π* interaction can be attenuated by the inductive electron withdrawa...

The mol-ecule of the title compound, C(24)H(18)O(10), a previously unknown coumarin derivative, contains methoxy-carbonyl, 2-butenedioate and benzoyl groups aligned at angles of 28.04 (2), 76.89 (3) and 42.48 (13)°, respectively, to the plane of the coumarin ring system. Intra-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonding between hydr-oxy and carbonyl groups and weak inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonding i...

Effects of cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz)-borne organic cyanide and inorganic cyanide in the form of sodium cyanide on bone and muscle development were investigated in eighteen dogs of Nigerian breed. After 16 weeks of stabilization in the laboratory from the time of purchase when the dogs were fed on the same diet, they were randomly assigned to three experimental groups of six dogs each. ...
