BACKGROUND Ulcerative colitis is predominantly a disease of non-smokers, and transdermal nicotine is therapeutic but often results in side-effects. Administration of nicotine as a liquid rectal enema results in less systemic nicotine absorption. AIM To determine the safety and clinical response of nicotine tartrate liquid enemas for active left-side ulcerative colitis in a pilot study. METH...

an atom-efficient, eco-friendly, solvent-free, high yielding, multicomponent green strategy to synthesize triazolo[1,2-a]indazole-triones derivatives by the one-pot condensation of aldehyde, dimedone, and phenyl urazole is presented. a series of different substituted aromatic aldehydes including either electron-withdrawing or electron-donating groups used in this reaction participated well and ...

the magnetically recoverable fe3o4 nanoparticle and the supported brønsted acidic ionic liquid 1-methyl-3-(3-trimethoxysilylpropyl) imidazolium hydrogen sulfate (fe3o4-il-hso4) were synthesized and used as efficient magnetic catalysts for the regioselective thiocyanation of aromatic and heteroaromatic compounds at room temperature in water: ethanol. this procedure provided the target thiocyanat...

zno nanostructures have been synthesized by a simple reflux method, using different ionic liquids, such as 1-benzyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide ([bzmim][br]), 1,1'-(1,4 phenylenebis (methylene)) bis (3-methyl-1h-imidazol-3-ium) bromide ([mm-1,4-dbzim2][br]2) and 1-phenacyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide ([pmim][br]), with different amount of sodium hydroxide in water. also the effect of reaction t...

simple, low temperature and environmentally benign green route is proposed for preparation of nanocrystalline zno in presence of a low-cost and halide-free room-temperature ionic liquid (rtil) by refluxing at 95 °c for 60 minutes. the x-ray diffraction (xrd) studies display that the products are well-crystallized in the form of wurtzite hexagonal. morphology of the as-prepared zno was character...

in this paper, synthesis of the flower-like zinc oxide was performed using microwave assisted dicationic ionic liquid [mmp(im)2 ]br2 . the polycrystalline flower-like zinc oxide nanostructure was obtained when a suitable mole ratio (ionic liquid /zinc acetate) and short duration microwave was used. x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem), and photoluminescence (pl) spectra w...

residual lignin of wood after mwl isolation was dissolved with 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ionic liquid. chemical structure of isolated mwl from poplar wood (popolus deltiodes) and dissolved residual lignin were characterized with gas chromatography and 1d, 2d nmr techniques. analytical results showed that  popolus deltoides wood has more 4-(3-hydroxy-1-propenyl)-2-methoxy phenol units...

A wide range of electronic cigarette (EC) devices, from small cigarette-like (first-generation) to new-generation high-capacity batteries with electronic circuits that provide high energy to a refillable atomizer, are available for smokers to substitute smoking. Nicotine delivery to the bloodstream is important in determining the addictiveness of ECs, but also their efficacy as smoking substitu...

regarding the green chemistry's goals, dicationic magnetic room temperature ionic liquid open up new avenue to introduce an amazing and efficient system for facilitating catalyst recovery in different organic reactions. ability of this dicationic magnetic room temperature ionic liquid catalyst in the one-pot three-components condensation reaction of benzil, aromatic aldehyde, and ammonium aceta...

an anionic fe(ii) complex, (bmim)4[fe(cn)6] (where bmim is 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium), was synthesized in ionic liquid [bmim][pf6] under reflux condition. the complex was characterized by elemental analysis and spectroscopic methods. the magnetite (fe3o4) nanoparticles were prepared by the hydrothermal and solvothermal (in ionic liquid [bmim][pf6]) methods from (bmim)4[fe(cn)6] as a precursor...
