AbstractFurfuryl alcohol (FA), a valuable compound from furfural (FF) was synthesized by efficient Ni-Cu/ZrO2 catalysts. The catalysts with varying Ni and Cu loading were developed by sol-gel method and characterized by Brunauer-Emmet-Teller (BET) method, X-ray diffraction, Temperature Programmed Reduction (TPR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy te...

AbstractA new anthraquinone appended oxacalix[4]arene (DAQOC) has been synthesized and characterized by different 1H NMR, IR, ESI-MS and 13C NMR spectroscopic techniques. This compound was explored for its sensing abilities towards various anions. DAQOC showed selective anion sensing behaviour towards F− ions which was supported by absorption as we...

AbstractThe absorption and fluorescence spectral properties of three meso-substituted hydrophilic thiacarbocyanine dyes were studied in solutions and in noncovalent complexes with human and bovine serum albumins (HSA and BSA, respectively). The presence of alkyl substituents at the meso-position of the polymethine chain of the dyes determines the o...

AbstractMicrowave-assisted one-pot quick synthesis to 1-monosubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles was achieved with good to excellent yields using the widely available arylboronic acids, sodium azide and 3-butyn-2-ols within 15 min. This method features high efficient and facile as organic azides, acetylene gas and harsh conditions were avoided.Graphic abstr...

AbstractAlkali and alkaline earth metal ions (Na+, K+, Cs+, Mg2+) exchanged MCM-22 zeolites were prepared and subsequently palladium (2 wt.%; Pd) was dispersed on above exchanged MCM-22 zeolite materials. All the MCM-22 materials were systematically characterized by FTIR, powder X-ray diffraction, N2 sorption analysis and temperature-programmed des...

AbstractThe synthesis of new alkenyl iodobenzoate derivatives as allylic esters was investigated via the reaction of tert-butyl iodobenzoperoxoate with alkenes in the presence of copper salts. The best result was obtained using tert-butyl-iodobenzoperoxoate in the presence of copper (I) iodide (5 mol%) in refluxing acetonitrile with good yield (92%...
