the aerobic oxidation of alcohols was efficiently completed in high conversion and selectivity using cu3/2[pmo12o40]/sio2 as catalyst under mild reaction condition. this reaction provides a new environmentally friendly rout to the conversion of alcoholic function to carbonyl groups.

some n¬-acyl-n'-aryl thiourea derivatives 4(a-f) have been prepared by the reaction of acyl halides ammonium thiocyanate and aryl amines. the structures of synthesized compounds have been characterized by ir, 1hnmr spectral studies. the synthesized compounds 5(a-f) have been screened for antibacterial activity. the effect of the structure of the investigated compounds on the antibacterial ...

Analytical chemistry is bound to face growing challenges in the near future, especially for quantification of trace analytes complex matrices [...]

an efficient and green method for the synthesis of pyrano[3,2-c]chromene or pyrano[4,3-b]pyrone derivatives is described by using a three-component condensation process of malononitrile, aldehyde, and 4-hydroxycoumarine or 4-hydroxypyrone in [bmim]bf4-licl as an ionic liquid.

pure azo schiff bases were readily and conveniently accessible in high yields by mixing of the reagents either as aqueous slurry, or by grinding at room temperature. this method, unlike a classical method, needs neither harsh conditions nor organic solvents. the satisfactory results were obtained with excellent yields, short reaction time, and operational simplicity in the experimental procedur...

Nitrate analysis in water is one of the most frequently applied methods in environmental chemistry. Current methods for nitrate are generally based on toxic substances. Here, we show that a viable alternative method is to use the enzyme nitrate reductase. The key to applying this Green Chemistry solution for nitrate analysis is plentiful, inexpensive, analytical grade enzyme. We demonstrate tha...
