para-aminobenzoic acid is supported on silica gel via reaction of activated silica gel and p-aminobenzoic acid which is then converted to its manganese and cobalt salts. a mixture of the manganese and cobalt salts of the acid is used to catalyze allylic and benzylic alcohols to their corresponding carbonyl compounds in reasonable yields using oxygen or air. reactions are clean and the catalysts...

The synthesis of imidazolinium salts from the reaction of formamidines and (2-bromoethyl)diphenylsulfonium triflate is described. A variety of symmetrical and unsymmetrical imidazolinium triflate salts were synthesized in high yield in short reaction times under mild conditions. Aromatic and aliphatic N-substituents work well. The reaction is proposed to proceed via generation of a vinyl sulfon...

continuous and excessive use of organophosphorus compounds has led to thecontamination of water and soil ecosystems. the degradation of organophosphorusinsecticides, chlorpyrifos, chlorpyrifos- methyl, cyanophos and malathion in mineral saltsmedia were studied. the effect of additional biofertilizers, singly or combined withorganic amendments, on chlorpyrifos and cyanophos degrading activity in...

Introduction: Lithium salts are known as effective psychotropic medicine for treatment bipolar disorder and may be used to treat alcoholism, schizoaffective disorders, and cluster headaches. The antioxidant activity and immunomodulatory effects of prospective lithium compounds have been investigated in this work. Materials and Methods: The antioxidant properties were studied by the voltammetry...

Ionic liquids are molten salts that have low melting points. This review concentrates upon eutectic mixtures of quaternary ammonium salts and metal salts (usually halides). These so-called eutectic based ionic liquids can be used for the electrodeposition and dissolution of a wide range of metals and alloys. The review highlights the technological challenges involved in the application of ionic...
