The application of enantiomerically-pure ruthenium(II) catalysts containing N - functionalised TsDPEN ligand to the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation 15 examples ?-heterocyclic acetophenone derivatives is reported. Products up 99% ee were formed.

background: several effects of volatile organic compounds (vocs) have been recognized such as toxic and carcinogenic human health effects. to evaluate cancer risk of benzenes air samples were taken, at an automobile manufacturing painters in tehran following inhalation exposure. methods: to perform this study, cross-sectional was done in 2016. sampling was carried out by active pump sampler usi...

Benzene, Toluene, Ethyl Benzene and Xylene are volatile organic compounds (VOCs) with approximately similar physical and chemical characteristics. Benzene and Ethyl-benzene are known carcinogen as well as they affect the circulatory, nervous, and reproductive and respiratory systems. Toluene and Xylene also damage the nervous and reproductive systems. The main purpose of this study is to determ...

A model is developed based on a two-stage hydrogenation of pyrolysis gasoline to obtain a C6-C8 cut suitable for extraction of aromatics. The first stage hydrogenation takes place in a trickle bed reactor while the second stage hydrogenation is carried out in a two compartment fixed bed reactor in which hydrogenation of olefins takes place in the first compartment while the sulphur is eliminate...

Adipic acid is an important industrial chemical used in the synthesis of nylon-6,6. The commercial synthesis of adipic acid uses petroleum-derived benzene and releases significant quantities of greenhouse gases. Biocatalytic production of adipic acid from renewable feedstocks could potentially reduce the environmental damage and eliminate the need for fossil fuel precursors. Recently, we have d...
