A three-component reaction between 1,2-phenylenediamine, ferrocenecarbaldehyde, and isocyanides in the presence of a catalytic amount of p-toluenesulfonic acid for the synthesis of 3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2-amine derivatives containing a ferrocene unit is reported. This approach is an effective procedure because the products have a broad spectrum of biological and pharmacological activities such ...

the application of the [pd{c6h3(ch2ch2nh2)-4-ome-5-κ2-c,n}(μ-br)]2 complex of 2-methoxyphenethylamine in the heck coupling reaction was considered under both conventional and microwave irradiation conditions, and their results were compared. this complex is an efficient, stable and non-sensitive to air and moisture catalyst for the vinylation of substituted aryl halides with different electroni...

In this work firstly Fe3O4 nanoparticles were synthesized via a sono-chemical method. At the second step magnesium hydroxide shell was synthesized on the magnetite-core under ultrasonic waves. For preparation Fe3O4-MgO the product was calcinated at 400 ºC for 2h. Properties of the product were examined by X-ray diffraction pattern (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Fourier transform ...

H-ZSM-5 nano-zeolites were synthesized by hydrothermal method using tetrapropylammonium hydroxide (TPAOH) as a template in the presence of various TPABr concentrations. The effect of different TPABr/TPAOH molar ratios was studied on the catalytic performance of dehydration of methanol to dimethyl ether (DME) in a fixed bed reactor under the same operating conditions (T=300°C, P=1 atm, and WHSV=...

zno and zro2 photo catalysts were synthesized by sol-gel auto combustion method. the products were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd) and scanning electron microscopy (sem). structural and morphological properties of nano particles were investigated and the average crystalline size of zno and zro2 was obtained 44 and 51 nm, respectively. also, photo catalytic degradation of nitro phenol f...

The emphasis of this review is atomically monodisperse Aun nanoclusters catalysts (n = number of metal atom in cluster) that are ideally composed of an exact number of metal atoms. Aun which range in size from a dozen to a few hundred atoms are particularly promising for nanocatalysis due to their unique core-shell structure and non-metallic electronic properties. Aun nanoclusters catalysts hav...

Crystalline fructose diphosphate aldolase preparations obtained from rabbit muscle and bovine liver differ in catalytic efficiency (fructose diphosphate cleavage activity of muscle aldolase is about 10 times that of the liver enzyme) and substrate specificity (the fructose diphosphate to fructose l-phosphate activity ratio is 50 for muscle and 1 for liver aldolase) (2). In spite of these distin...

The greater reactivity of esters relative to amides has typically been reflected in their faster rates of both solvolysis and enzymatic hydrolysis. In contrast to this general principle, the serine hydrolytic enzyme fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) was found to degrade amides and esters with equivalent catalytic efficiencies. Mutation of a single lysine residue (K142) to alanine (K142A) abolis...

Two alcohol dehydrogenases with different catalytic properties were separated from Rhizopus javanicus, and some of their immunological and molecular properties were compared.

Layered material MoS2 has been attracting much attention due to its excellent electronical properties and catalytic property. Here we report the synthesis of vertically standing MoS2 triangles on silicon carbon(SiC), through a rapid sulfidation process. Such edge-terminated films are metastable structures of MoS2, which may find applications in FinFETs and catalytic reactions. We have confirmed...
