The utilization of green chemistry techniques are dramatically reduces chemical wastes and reaction time as recently have been proven in several organic syntheses and chemical transformations. To illustrate these advantages in the synthesis of organic heterocycles, various environmentally benign protocols that involve greener alternatives have been studied. The objective of present research wor...

We describe the synthesis, characterization, aqueous behavior, and catalytic activity of a new generation of Fe(III)-TAML (tetraamido macrocycle ligand) activators of peroxides (2), variants of [Fe{(OC)(2)(o,o'-NC(6)H(4)NCO)(2)CMe(2)}(OH(2))(-)] (2d), which have been designed to be especially suitable for purifying water of recalcitrant oxidizable pollutants. Activation of H(2)O(2) by 2 (k(I)) ...

Microbially generated or supported nanocatalysts have potential applications in green chemistry and environmental application. However, precious (and base) metals biorefined from wastes may be useful for making cheap, low-grade catalysts for clean energy production. The concept of bionanomaterials for energy applications is reviewed with respect to potential fuel cell applications, bio-catalyti...

This work deals with the development of a green and versatile synthesis of stable mono- and bi-metallic colloids by means of microwave heating and exploiting ecofriendly reagents: water as the solvent, glucose as a mild and non-toxic reducer and polyvinylpirrolidone (PVP) as the chelating agent. Particle size-control, total reaction yield and long-term stability of colloids were achieved with t...

The anticoagulant racemic warfarin is synthesized by the Michael addition of 4-hydroxycoumarin with benzalacetone in the present of equimolar amounts of imidazolium based ionic liquids [bmim] BF4 and [bmim] Br and other reaction solvents such as H2O, pyridine and ammonia in five different tests. Also synthesis of a derivative of warfarin (2-methyl-4-phenyl pyrano [3, 2-c] chromen-5(4H)-one) und...

mayuri m. naik was born in 1988 in curchorem, goa (india). she completed her b.sc. from government college of arts, science and commerce, quepem-goa in 2008. she received her m.sc. degree in organic chemistry from goa university in 2010. presently she is proceeding with ph.d. under the supervision of prof. s. g. tilve and prof. v. p. kamat in department of chemistry, goa university, goa. her re...

In this research study, methanol synthesis catalysts were manufactured with various mole ratios of metal carbonates (zinc, copper and aluminum carbonate) and ammonium hydrogen carbonate via a green solid-state method that employed a ball mill apparatus. Some parameters for the catalyst preparation, such as Al mole percent, Cu/Zn mole ratio, rotations milling speeds and aging time, were optimize...

supported catalysts synthesized via the interaction of mg(oet)2 with ticl4 in the presence or absence of an internal stereoregulating donor (di-n-butyl phthalate), with different solvents (chlorobenzene, n-undecane, n-heptane) at different titanation temperatures have been studied by a set of physicochemical methods. data on the chemical composition, x-ray structure and pore structure of these ...

Gilbert's chemistry sets, those that many of today's practicing chemists received as children, proved to be the spark that ignited many a lifelong exploration of the wonders of chemistry. While DuPont was espousing its contributions to the world with its motto, "Better living through chemistry," children were using the popular Gilbert's chemistry sets to perform the simplest experiments and vie...
