A series of isostructural, noncatenated, zinc-pillared-paddlewheel metal-organic framework materials has been synthesized from 1,2,4,5-tetrakis(carboxyphenyl)benzene and trans-1,2-dipyridylethene struts. Substantial kinetic selectivity in the adsorption of propene over propane can be observed, depending on the pore apertures and the rectangular-plate morphology of the crystals.

In the crystal structure of the title compound, C(15)H(12)Br(2)O(2), which was synthesized from 2,10-dibromo-2,2'-dihydroxy-biphenyl and 2,2-dimethoxy-propane, the aromatic rings are twisted by 35 (1)°. The heterocyclic ring exhibits a twisted conformation.

In the title compound, [Zn(SO4)(C12H8N2)2]·C3H8O2, the Zn(II) ion is in a distorted square-pyramidal coordination environment composed of four N atoms from two chelating 1,10-phenanthroline ligands and one O atom from a monodentate sulfate ligand. The Zn(II) ion lies on a twofold rotation axis. The sulfate ligand and propane-1,2-diol mol-ecules are disordered across the twofold rotation axis. T...

The title compound, C(24)H(27)FN(2)O(4), is an important inter-mediate in the synthesis of fungicidal strobilurin-type compounds. In the crystal structure, the oxime bond attached to the cyclo-propane ring adopts a Z configuration, while the oxime bond attached to the benzene ring adopts an E configuration. The fluoro-methyl-phenyl group adopts a trans configuration with respect to the remainde...

This paper deals with the heat exchange performance prediction of a counter flow double-tube condenser for binary natural refrigerant mixtures (propane/n-butane & propane/i-butane ). The local characteristics of the heat transfer and pressure drop are calculated using a prediction method developed by authors, and the total pressure drop, the overall heat transfer coefficient and the average hea...

Phosphates represent diverse complex systems, whose basic structural unit is tetrahedron. They are widely applied as catalysts, carriers of catalytic active substances, adsorbents and ion exchangers. Phosphoric acid phosphates act catalyst for reactions alkylation, cracking, izomerization, polymerization, hydrogenation dehydrogenation. some metals promote oxidation normal alkanes with derivatio...

An imploding annular shock wave driven by a jet of air was used to initiate detonations inside a 76 mm diameter tube. The tube was filled with a test gas composed of either stoichiometric ethylene-oxygen or propane-oxygen diluted with nitrogen. The strength of the imploding shock wave and the sensitivity of the test gas were varied in an effort to find the minimum shock strength required for de...

Inspired by previous studies on model systems, a series of silica-supported Au–Ni catalysts were prepared and tested for the conversion of propane in the presence of hydrogen. The Au–Ni/SiO2 catalysts were prepared by successive impregnation, i.e. Ni was deposited first followed by Au. TEM/EDX results confirmed the presence of bimetallic Au–Ni nanoparticles. The dehydrogenation of propane to pr...

Plasmatron fuel converters have been investigated for the conversion of a wide range of fuels. This paper is one of a series of paper investigating the performance of plasmatron reformers. In this paper a systematic experimental investigation is carried out of the reformation of propane in a plasmatron fuel reformer. The effect upon reformation of flow rate distribution and electrical power lev...

In this study at first, in laboratory, three types of vanadium oxide were produced by using porous graphene and amine framework in hydrothermal method nanostructures such as: vanadium oxide - octadecyl amine - graphene, vanadium oxide - dodecyl amine - graphene and vanadium oxide – aniline - graphene (V-ODA-G، V-DDA-G، V-A-G). Then their structures and functions in propane dehydrogenation react...
