14-aryl- and 14-alkyl-14-h-dibenzo [a,j]xanthenes are prepared from the reaction of aromatic- and aliphaticaldehydes with β-naphthol in the presence of catalytic amounts of 4-dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid(dbsa) as asurfactant-type brønsted acid catalyst in toluene and under solvent-free conditions in excellent yields and shortreaction times. the catalyst was recovered and reused for five successi...

one-pot preparation of 2,4,5-trisubstituted and 1,2,4,5-tetrasubstituted imidazoles has been conducted in the presence of poly(4-vinylpyridinium butane sulfonic acid) hydrogen sulfate, p(4vpbsa)hso4, as an efficient dual acidic catalyst under solvent-free conditions. reusability of the catalyst, easy work-up procedure, eco-friendly reaction conditions, short reaction times and high yields of th...

Selective catalytic reduction (SCR) technology increasingly is being applied for controlling emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) from coal-fired boilers. Some recent field and pilot studies suggest that the operation of SCR could affect the chemical form of mercury (Hg) in coal combustion flue gases. The speciation of Hg is an important factor influencing the control and environmental fate of Hg...

The utilization of a monomer-on-monomer (MoM) intramolecular Mitsunobu cyclization reaction employing norbornenyl-tagged (Nb-tagged) reagents is reported for the synthesis of benzofused thiadiazepine-dioxides. Facile purification was achieved via ring-opening metathesis (ROM) polymerization initiated by one of three metathesis catalyst methods: (i) free metathesis catalyst, (ii) surface-initiat...

A new microporous metal-organic framework compound featuring chiral (salen)Mn struts is highly effective as an asymmetric catalyst for olefin epoxidation, yielding enantiomeric excesses that rival those of the free molecular analogue. Framework confinement of the manganese salen entity enhances catalyst stability, imparts substrate size selectivity, and permits catalyst separation and reuse.

The regiodivergent palladium-catalyzed C-H arylation of pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine has been achieved, wherein the switch in regioselectivity between positions C3 and C7 is under complete catalyst control. A phosphine-containing palladium catalyst promotes the direct arylation at the most acidic position (C7), whereas a phosphine-free catalyst targets the most electron-rich position (C3).

an efficient synthesis route to 1,4-dihydropyrimidine derivatives from reaction of divergent aldehydes with ethylacetoacetate and urea under solvent-free conditions by zno nanoparticles as a relative in expansive, eco-friendly, easy available, non-volatile, non-explosion, thermally robust, recyclable and easy to handle catalyst at 90°c with excellent yields is described. unenhanced reaction tim...

mehg and total mercury concentrations were determined in the muscle tissues of four fish species (cyprinus carpio, rutilus frisii, carassius auratus and esox lucius) from anzali wetland (guilan, iran). fish with the highest amount of mehg was selected to determine the thermodynamic parameters of mehg extraction. the extractions process was performed in the range of temperatures 331.15 to 367.15...

In order to improve the ability of SCR catalyst catalyze oxidation gaseous elemental mercury, a series novel Ce modified (Selection Catalytic Reduction, V2O5–WO3/TiO2) catalysts were prepared via two-step ultrasonic impregnation method. The performance Ce/SCR on Hg0 and NO reduction as well catalytic mechanism was also studied. XRD, BET measurements XPS used characterize catalysts. results show...
