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...

ABSTRACT Polyvinylpolypyrrolidone supported chlorosulfonic acid ([PVPP-SO3H]+Cl-) was synthesized and evaluated as a recoverable catalyst for the one-pot synthesis of hexahydroquinolines by reaction of arylaldehydes, dimedone (5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,3-dione) or 1,3-cyclohexanedione, ethylacetoacetate and ammonium acetate in high to excellent yield in ethanol at 70 °C. The [PVPP-SO3H]+Cl- cat...

Recently, the focus of fuel cell technologies has shifted from light-duty automotive to heavy-duty vehicle applications, which require improving stability membrane electrode assemblies (MEAs) at high constant potential. The hydrophilicity Pt makes it easy combine with water molecules and then oxidize potential, resulting in poor durability catalyst. In this work, an ionic liquid [BMIM][NTF2] wa...

High yield of H2 of high purity from acetic acid, a model compound of bio-oil from the biomass fast pyrolysis, was produced by sorption enhanced steam reforming (SESR). An oxygen carrier was introduced into a chemical loop (CL) coupled to the cyclical SESR process to supply heat in situ for the endothermic sorbent regeneration, in order to increase the energy efficiency of the process. A new mu...

The complex [Rh(I(t)Bu)(2)HCl] has been shown to be an active catalyst in the hydrosilylation of carbonyl and imine complexes. This reactivity, combined with the previously reported H/D exchange catalyzed by these complexes allows for a one pot, two step reaction using a single catalyst for both H/D exchange and hydrosilylation. Using triethylsilane, [Rh(I(t)Bu)(2)Cl] catalyst, and D(2) gas, de...

A cyclometalated iridium(III) complex containing a N∧C∧N-coordinating terdentate ligand [Ir(dpyx-N,C,N)Cl(μ-Cl)]2 was found to be a general and highly effective catalyst for the α-alkylation of ketones and N-alkylation of amines with alcohols. In the presence of catalyst (1 mol % Ir) and base (0.2-0.5 equiv), a variety of desirable products were obtained in good yields under an air atmosphere. ...

the reaction of hydrogen peroxide and  pheny -9-acridinecarboxylate in the presence of rhodamin b as a fluorophore leads to the emission of either bright blue light  or bright red light, depending on the structure of fluorescer and reaction conditions. the light emitter responsible for the chemi luminescence (cl) reaction is acridone and that the blue light produced with out the fluorescers is ...

Reinvestigation of the Lewis acid catalyzed rearrangement of some open-chain permethyloligosilanes with the Al(Fe)Cl(3) catalyst system exhibited several cases of additional reactivity: namely, a fragmentation/cyclization reaction. Introduction of (trimethylsilyl)methyl substituents into the oligosilane substrates strongly facilitated this reaction, yielding cyclic or bicyclic carbacyclosilanes...

A rotaxane-based Au catalyst was developed and the effect of the mechanical bond on its behavior was studied. Unlike the non-interlocked thread, the rotaxane requires a catalytically innocent cofactor, the identity of which significantly influences both the yield and diastereoselectivity of the reaction. Under optimized conditions, Au(I) (the catalyst), Ag(I) (to abstract the Cl(-) ligand), and...
