a highly efficient procedure for the synthesis of 1,8-dioxo-octahydroxanthenes under mild, green and solvent-free condition by using hosa as a dual role catalyst is described. this is the first report of catalytic activity of hosa.

in this article, simple, convenient synthesis of 2-aryl-1-arylmethyl-1h-1,3-benzimidazole (1,2-disubstitutedbenzimidazoles) via condensation of 1,2-phenylenediamine and aromatic aldehydes using sba-pr-so3h as a nanoporous solid acid catalyst in green protocol was reported.

There is an interest in the development of an antioxidant packaging fully biodegradable to increase the shelf life of food products. An active film from cassava starch bio-based, incorporated with aqueous green tea extract and oil palm colorant was developed packaging. The effects of additives on the film properties were determined by measuring mechanical, barrier and thermal properties using a...

This review covers general information regarding the green synthesis of antibacterial silver nanoparticles. Owing to their antibacterial properties, silver nanoparticles are widely used in many areas, especially biomedical applications. In green synthesis practices, the chemical reducing agents are eliminated, and biological entities are utilized to convert silver ions to silver nanoparticles. ...

in this work, the efficiency, generality and applicability of new bronsted acidic ionic liquid (bail) 1-methyl-3-(2-(sulfooxy)ethyl)-1h-imidazol-3-ium chloride {[msei]cl} as heterogeneous and green catalyst for organic transformations are studied. herein, the following one-pot multi-component reactions in the presence of [msei]cl are investigated: (i) the synthesis of quinoxaline derivatives fr...

Plant-mediated synthesis of metal oxide nanoparticles is a promising alternative to the traditional method of physical and chemical synthesis. In this paper, we report the green synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) by a biological method. During the study, Zinc oxide nanoparticles were synthesized by Allium sativum skin (garlic skin) extract. Formation of zinc oxide nanoparticles has ...

The main function of the photosynthetic process is to capture solar energy and to store it in the form of chemical 'fuels'. Increasingly, the photosynthetic machinery is being used for the production of biofuels such as bio-ethanol, biodiesel and bio-H2. Fuel production efficiency is directly dependent on the solar photon capture and conversion efficiency of the system. Green algae (e.g. Chlamy...

We fabricated a sandwich-like branched-polyethyleneimine (b-PEI)/TiO2/Au/graphene oxide (GO) nanocomposite through a biomimetic layer-by-layer co-mineralization approach, and the polymer b-PEI was believed to act as both an inducing agent for the hydrolysis of titanium bis(ammonium lactato)-dihydroxide (Ti-BALDH) and a reducing agent for the reduction of HAuCl4 in the synthetic procedure. Upon ...
