An efficient method for the synthesis of mono and bulky 1,8-dioxooctahydroxanthenes was developed by the reaction of dimedone or 1,3-cyclohexadione and aldehydes or some bisaldehydes in the presence of polyvinylpolypyrrolidone supported oxalic acid (PVPP-OXA) as a new polymeric catalyst in ethanol at room temperature. Polyvinylpolypyrrolidone supported oxalic acid was characterized by FT-IR, an...

Abstract Understanding the reactions taking place in hematite-oxalic acid system is important order to clean iron oxides from filters and remove mineral concentrates. Previous studies reported formation of an unwanted solid phase during this process. The objective current work, therefore, was visualize rationalize dissolution steps hematite–oxalic reaction by combining density functional theory...

The effects of postharvest oxalic acid (OA) treatment on ethylene production, fruit quality, bioactive compounds and antioxidant activity of peach fruit, were examined. Fruits were treated with oxalic acid immediately after harvest and stored at 1° C and 90% relative humidity for 28 days. The oxalic acid treated peach fruit exhibited significantly lower levels of ethylene production, pH, total ...

Ascorbic acid overload and vitamin B6 deficiency have been implicated in the development of hyperoxalemia in dialysis patients, but there is still disagreement about this. Hemodialysis patients who are exposed long-term hyperoxalemia may develop secondary oxalosis with an increased risk of cardiac, vascular, and bone disease, and thus may benefit from maintaining a low serum oxalic acid level. ...

Colemanite is one of the most important underground riches of Turkey, having approximately 60% of the world boron deposits, and it has a large portion in the deposits. In this study, chemical leaching and biological leaching methods were used for production of boric acid from colemanite (2CaO · 3B3O3 · 5H2O) (Emet-Kütahya, Turkey). Oxalic acid concentration, temperature, stirring time and solid...
