a simple, efficient and clean procedure has been developed for the cleavage of imines c=n bond. deprotection of imines to their parent carbonyl and amine compounds was achieved using p-toluenesulfonic acid in the solid state condition at 25-45 ˚c. the salient features of this methodology are shorter reaction times, cheap processing, high yields of product and easy availability of the catalyst. ...

limn2o4 spinel cathode materials have been successfully synthesized by solid-state reaction. surface of these particles were modified by nanostructured lifepo4 via sol gel dip coating method. synthesized products were characterized by thermally analyzed by thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis(tg/dta), x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem), and energy dispers...

optimization of the fermentation medium for maximum alkaline protease production was carried out. fifteen positive isolates were examined for their extent of alkaline protease production. the most potent producer was identified as bacillus sp. the solid substrate screening showed that the combination of wheat straw and bean husk was the best one. the initial screening by using plackett–burman’s...

copper oxide nanostructures have been successfully synthesized via one-step solid-state thermolysis of two metal-organic frameworks, [cu3(btc)2] (1) and [cu(tpa).(dmf)] (2), (btc = benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate, tpa = therephtalic acid = 1,4-benzendicarboxylic acid and dmf = dimethyl formamide) under air atmosphere at 400,  500, and 600°c. it has also been found that the reaction temperature pla...

a basic alumina-spinel low cement castable (lcc) composed of sintered bauxite, reactive alumina, calcined alumina, calcined magnesia, microsilica, and high alumina refractory cement was prepared (castable a) to which 5% sodium hexa-meta phosphate was later added (castable b) to prepare samples for heat treatment at 110ºc, 900ºc, and 1400ºc. bulk density (bd), apparent porosity (ap), and cold cr...

the nanopowders of sno2, casno3 and ca2sno4 in the size rang of 5-70 nm have been prepared using solid-state reaction technique. the technique is convenient and inexpensive in comparison to the conventional routes of compound prepared and processing where, many steps of mixing and annealing are involved. formation of resultant compounds was explained on the basis of reaction taken place between...

objectives: the aim of this study was to compare the permeability of dentin after using diamond bur and er:yag laser. materials and methods: seventy-two recently extracted, intact, and restoration-free human permanent molars were used in this study. the samples were randomly divided into three groups of 24 each and class i cavities were prepared as follows. group 1: high speed diamond bur with ...

introduction: male urethral stricture is a complicated urologic disease that could be successfully treated using internal urethrotomy. laser internal urethrotomy has been used in many cases with favorable outcome in many studies. holmium: yag laser with its incisional properties on tissue is one of the laser types applied for internal urethrotomy. methods: we present a 19 year-old male with his...
