A highly efficient and scalable microwave assisted synthesis of zirconium-based metal-organic framework UiO-66 was developed. In order to identify the best conditions for optimizing the process, a wide range of parameters was investigated. The efficiency of the process was evaluated with the aid of four quantitative indicators. The properties of the materials prepared by microwave irradiation w...

This paper reports an investigation of the microwave-assisted synthesis of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) using extract of stinky bean (Parkia speciosa Hassk) pods (BP). The formation of Ag NPs was identified by instrumental analysis consists of UV-vis spectrophotometry, Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectrophotometry, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM...

Compound libraries are important requirement in target-based drug discovery. In the present work, a small focused compound library based on β-aminoketone scaffold has been prepared combining microwave-assisted organic synthesis (MAOS) with polymer-assisted solution phase synthesis (PASPS) and replacing reaction workup standard purification procedures with solid phase extraction (SPE). Specifica...

Microwave-assisted synthesis of near-infrared fluorescent sphingosine derivatives is described, and the utility of the probes demonstrated by co-localization studies with visible wavelength fluorescent sphingosine derivatives.

Excellent control in the synthesis of MEH-PPV can be achieved by microwave assisted, ring-opening metathesis polymerisation (ROMP) of [2.2]paracyclophanedienes.

Carbon quantum dots (CQDs) are a class of carbon nanomaterials that have recently gained recognition as current entrants to traditional semiconductor dots. CQDs the desirable advantages low toxicity, environmental friendliness, cost, photostability, favorable charge transfer with enhanced electronic conductivity, and comparable easy-synthesis protocols. This review examines advancements in CQD ...

Reusable silica supported perchloric acid and potassium bisulphate have been prepared and explored as green catalysts for thiocyanation of aromatic compounds under conventional and solvent free microwave assisted conditions. The microwave assisted protocol exhibited remarkable rate accelerations and offered selective thiocyanation of aromatic and hetero aromatic compounds in good yields. Reacti...

substituted 2, 4- diphenyl quinolines were synthesized by a multicomponent domino reaction of anilines, aldehydes and terminal aryl alkynes. the synthetic pathway involves the formation of an imine, followed by the intermolecular addition of an alkyne to the imine. this intermediate immediately undergoes ring closure and oxidative aromatization. the reaction is catalyzed by natural kaolin, a st...
