Nanomagnetite-Fe3O4 is used as a highly efficient, mild, green and recyclable nanomagnetite catalyst for the synthesis of 4,4´-(arylmethylene)-bis(3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-5-ol) derivatives in solvent-free conditions. The condensation reaction of 3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-5(4H)-one with aromatic aldehydes affords the title compounds in high yields and short reaction times. The nanocataly...

It provides it sumtnary of some of the predicted relationships hctween the ash chemistry of coal, and coke properties of British Columbia coals. A brief overview iIf the ash chemistry of British Columbia coking coals is presented. The data arc used to ...

Quantum computers have been proved to be able to mimic quantum systems efficiently in polynomial time. Quantum chemistry problems, such as static molecular energy calculations and dynamical chemical reaction simulations, become very intractable on classical computers with scaling up of the system. Therefore, quantum simulation is a feasible and effective approach to tackle quantum chemistry pro...

DNA polymerases catalyze efficient and high-fidelity DNA synthesis. While this reaction favors nucleotide incorporation, polymerases also catalyze a reverse reaction, pyrophosphorolysis, that removes the DNA primer terminus and generates deoxynucleoside triphosphates. Because pyrophosphorolysis can influence polymerase fidelity and sensitivity to chain-terminating nucleosides, we analyzed pyrop...

an organosuperbase (n,n-dimethylbiguanide) immobilized on mesoporous and magnetically separable silica supports, was found for the first time, to act as a highly-stable, scalable and efficient heterogeneous catalyst for the henry reaction under mild and neutral condition. several factors such as catalyst amount, solvent and reaction time concerning the reactivity were also discussed. the proced...

Nano silica sulfuric acid as a solid acid, was described to be an effective catalyst for one-pot three-component reaction of kojic acid, aryl aldehydes and indoles for the preparation of 2-substituted aryl (indolyl) kojic acid derivatives. The catalyst was prepared by combination of chlorosulfonic acid to nano silica gel. The size of nanoparticles were observed with SEM.All prepared compounds w...

Fundamental experiments and direct numerical simulations indicate that reaction rates during the ignition delay of direct-injection, stratified charge mixtures are determined by both chemical reaction and mixing rates. Consequently, the commonly used, purely chemistry-dependent approach for predicting ignition is no longer valid when the mixing rate limits the reaction rates. This work proposes...
